I spent yesterday, saturday, pulling everything I didn't need off of the B16. Wire harness, plugs, manifold, etc....was getting it ready to clean a bit.

The motor was in GREAT shape! looked new on the back, but the front and bottom had some grease/grime/dirt from 11 years of use :)

I was going to clean it with a degreaser, but found that fruitless. I pulled out the laquer thinnner and went to work. great thing about thinner, is you get it where it's not supposed to be and it evaporates :) so any holes or openings in the motor didn't matter. and then you don't have to rinse it either! It evaprotes :)

Now that it's about done, and looking like brand new, it's time to start on the preventative maintenence..........

Awsome!
I hope your getting lots of pictures to go with this?

sounds sweet keep it up

Hey Vince, where did you get your motor again?
