Oops, missed your post. I used Gunk Engine degreaser and diluted Simple Green. I just covered the fuse box and maf with aluminum foil and avoided spraying the the serp belt and pulleys.
I popped the hood and let it cool for an hour or so.
Project is complete! Thanks to all your help on here!

Replaced the door speakers with Rockford Fosgate Components up front and three ways in the back. Pulled the speaker grills and cleaned them with Folex while I had them off and got them looking really good! I also had my timing belt and water pump done Saturday as I'm at 182,000 miles.
Care share what you plan for a bumper? High clearance, dual swingouts, any special latching mechanism or gear holders?

It'll all be in my build thread. Just got started today. Tomorrow it'll start to look like a bumper. Had some power outage issues today and only got to lay things out.

Finished up the twin compressor install
I had Landcruisers NW replace my CVs. And I replaced a faulty horn and fog light rely. Totally a PITA to get to but easy to replace once you're in. Installed a new Air filter, changed the oil with M1 5/30, Lucas synthetic oil stabilizer, installed a M1-209 filter, greased the yokes and shafts with M1. I also changed the cabin filters and cleansed the evaporator.
193k miles. Just completed big service on my 2000 LC that I've had since it was new.
1. Timing belt, idler pulleys and tensioner.
2. Water pump.
3. New Radiator and hoses.
4. Valve cover gaskets.
5. All new brake rotors.
6. Greased wheel bearings and driveline.
7. Replaced fuel line and filter
8. Replaced passenger, driver door and moonroof seals.
9. Changed front, rear differential and transfer case fluid with M1 75/90.
10. New battery.
11. New OEM rear shocks.
Leather was replaced a couple of years ago. Next up minor bodywork repairs and a repaint. I will also get the font end inspected and make any necessary repairs.

Tires and lift delivered today and a little done on the rear bumper.

A few bumper tweaks and the wings will be ready to be bent and attached.

If you don't mind. What size tires are you running on your LX and do you have the AHC lifted a little? I have the same rig that's stock right now and just picked up the some Tundra wheels today. You have the look I'm shooting for!
