Anyone else not care about having a clean engine bay?

That's it, I'm going outside to clean my engine right now, out of general spite.

I have never cleaned the engine bay on my Tacoma, It's not that dirty, covered in dust. I can't recall cleaning the engine bay of any vehicle.

I like a clean engine bay.

 

I changed my mind. I'm going to clean exactly half of my engine bay.

Suck it, everyone.

 

A trendsetter! I like it.

 

That's a 3rd gen, get outta here Rock, wrong section!

 

The transcendent are above such earthly labels.

 

You cleaned the Wrong Side!!

What does the year matter ?

 

I figure that the dirt removal from that side will help offset the Taco Lean.

 

I was wondering why I didn't have one of them stupid plastic engine covers.

 

Very valid point I give you that one!

 

I never clean mine.
I only clean it if I have to replace a part.
And then, I only clean that section I’m working on.

 

No matter it will always be a personal thing!

I will wash the engine before the body I never washed the body.

 

This is how mine looks pretty much all the time....

 

Damn dude,,, that's nice! Scary clean.

 

lol.... nothing really scary at all just OCD and thats almost 2 yrs old

 

When I first got my truck I never cleaned the engine bay. Now that my truck is older & grime builds up I clean pretty regularly, especially if I'm gonna do some work on it.

No distributor so there's no need to really cover anything unless you have stuff removed or bad seals. I spray foamy degreaser on when the engine is warm (not hot). I'll spray the heavy duty degreaser on areas that are caked. Wait 5-10 minutes, then hose it off (not pressure wash). Then I blow excess water off & start the engine right after. I always do it this way except on my old car I had to cover the distributor & other little things that needed to be.

Not the last time I cleaned it but it's the only time I've ever took a pic. I cleaned it just a few weeks ago but this time I took the skid plate off & degreased as much as I could from the bottom cause I needed to replace the LCA bushings. Man that shit was filthy, never used degreaser underneath before.

 

This was my 2014 TRD OR 110,000 miles on it
