Thread: what is this gunk????

i have a 99 gtp and this gunk is all over the engine idk what it is, its kinda oily idk where it came from either if anyone can shed some light on this id be grateful

Its gunk dirt and oil mixed together. This happens on every engine of every car ever made. You want gunk gone clean the engine with some Super Green or whatever that stuff is called. Hose it down rinse it off and call it a day bro.
My car has 180k on it and its got more gunk than that plus it has dead grasshopper carcasses mixed in it looks so pretty.

I had/have it all over mine too. nbd.

oil and dirt, yup.

its dirt.. clean it, see if it comes back..

I't an alien life form that's taking over your ride! Run for your life!!!! LOL

Yea, mostly oil mixed with dirt.

ok you think carb clean would do the trick?

GUNK from the local auto parts store.

Purple Power, spray it on and let it sit.
Spray it off with water.
Be amazed.

Put some glitter on the grasshoppers imo.
Then you'll be winnin car shows.

Here are some before/afters with Purple Power.
I did both, underside and top and was super amazed.
I did nothing but spray on and spray off.





Afters:

Purple Power is environmentally friendly?...Right?

i use gunk foamy engine brite, but crc engine de greaser was on sale so i tried it out, stuff worked real good, and no smell after i hosed it off. my new go to cleaner for now.

if you still have areas of thick grease re spray and scrub the areas with a paint brush, then hose down again.

i always spray the under side first, then spray the top, with the car on ramps, or jack stands so you can get under it to spray as much engine and trans as possible.

HOT HOT HOT HOT water is bestest.

Pressure washer on fan for under that car.

I would have to go read the bottle. It left no ill effects on the surface car was parked over and critters that roam the yard didn't get sick.
I didn't think it smelled or anything. I just used a garden hose to spray off.

Bill recommended the stuff to me.

That is awesome danielle, I want some.

I use Purple Power to clean my garage floor. It is amazing.
Just wondering if I was "killing any critters".

I got it at Wal-Mart, cheap too! First got a qrt bottle, quickly realized that wasn't near enough and went back for a gallon.

It is some amazing shiz.

im not worried about the critters ill try that purple power stuff thanks!
