cleaning

So I’m finally in shape with the important stuff and now it’s time to start on the more cosmetic side of things. When I bought this truck it had years of caked, dried on mud on the whole underbelly. Used an oscillating sprinkler and let it run for a good long stretch. It got all of the really...

Had a son’s friend leave a Starbucks pink drink on its side in the center middle seat. It sat there in a puddle for over a day and seems to seep into the cushion under the leather. I can’t take the smell anymore. I had it detailed but the smell came back after a day. Is there anyway to take...

Been having a rough idle lately. Took this off to give it a cleaning… is that spring suppose to spring or should it feel stuck? It’s a 1992 btw. 3FE.

Hi All, Based on some issues I am experiencing and researching here and on other sites I would like to clean or at least have a look at the MAF sensor (or does it only have a MAP?) - I had a look at the air intake pipes and in the general vicinity and obviously I am being dumb as just cant see...

I have a '14 LX 570 that I think it has never been cleaned. It's now 183K miles. I saw this guy removed the throttle body on his Tundra; however, I don't know if for the LX 570 it can be removed like that and if I should even if I can. I've also watched the Car Care Nut guy and he said that if...

Hi folks. On the other side of the planet here we are about to head into the wet season and id like to fix my wipers. The intermittent function doesn't work. Ive pulled the relay box a few times, cleaned it , cleaned the points and oiled it and it will work sometimes for a few minutes or a few...

Oh brother.... I like to keep my chainsaws really clean. Makes me feel at peace with the world... But not feeling that much at peace today... Was out there, clearing some giant Myoporums (I think) bushes, like 30' tall. With limbs up to 10" in diameter or so. Whenever I'd cut one of those...

I am cleaning and putting together my intake manifold with a bunch of parts I scavenged. A few vacuum lines in the metal bundle under the intake manifold are clogged. Any one have an idea how to get these cleared?

Hey guys, Bought a used intake because mine was warped, but boy is this thing DIRTY! Curious the quickest way to cleaning one of these. Might be able to call in a favor to have it bead blasted at a machine shop, but that could take a week. I’m only bothering because there’s some big...

Getting ready to put the data plates back on. I wasn't sure how best to clean them. I didn't want to remove the graphics but did want to get the stains off and make it readable. I didn't see a thread on here with any suggestions. Here is what worked for me. Clean with a degreaser (Purple Power...

Decided to drop the back end of the headliner during the interior removal to complete the cleaning of the mess left behind by the previous family. Had an annoying rattle that I found came from the triangular piece of foam that was once glued to the headliner and then double sided taped to the...

Hello, I've been reading the EWD for a while and searching past threads but unable to connect the dots to what I see under my 80. None of what I see matches the wire colors in the EWD. Can anyone tell me if either of these connectors is from the factory? I need to clean this up so I can...

Hey guys, installing my insulator plate. Thoughts on cleaning up this surface? Obviously it looks great, but just to prep for mounting. Dan

Getting ready to clear out some more gear and I know most of you guys are relatively close, so local pick up might simplify things for both parties. Listing one of our tents for starters. coming up not sure it'll be feasible, but going to try to rehome as much of our Snow Peak Iron Grill Table...

Hello everyone, here I am again...actually I read every morning :-) I closed the egr valve not long ago by cleaning out all the ducts. I always do the reset via obd on android but it's starting to get tedious.... If you're stuck the warning lights come on very often, if you're driving you...

Hardcore cleaning today. Figured why not see what’s under there….😳

I decided to swap a lock actuator to try and fix a broken lock. After getting the assembly out I am not sure the actuator is entirely at fault. The lock mechanism is stupid crusty and sticky. I was thinking of spraying it out with some brake clean or carb cleaner followed by a spray of lube...

Finally got everything to help restore and re-assemble my T-stat housing (thanks to completely seized bolts in my original housing...sending me on the hunt for this new used housing). Thanks Mark S. I'd like to get all the grime off and clean up these BSVS's. Would it be kosher to let these sit...
