Was this before or after you won (lost, most likely) against those cars you were street racing?

Answer these questions three:

Question 1, Do you actually think that's dirty?

Question 2, Why did you post 2 pictures of the same rag laying differently?

Question 3, Why did you post a picture of a marble ball?


You can press enter after each picture too so you don't stretch the living heck out of the thread.

Oh and question 4, Why did you feel the need to post this at all?

Never mind cleaning the TB, looks like you have the famous top end of the Rad weeping ... spray all over the engine cover kind of gives that one away

You think that engine cover is bad, you should see my entire engine bay.

I just haven't had the motivation to actively order and install a new rad yet...

I can imagine how bad it looks ... mine was the same way until it got replaced ... what a mess it was in there.

Funny thing is, my rad, fully topped off will leak down until it gets to be about half-full and then it'll stop blowing out coolant.

The car hasn't overheated at all, either. Surprisingly. So I'm biding my time until I absolutely have to get a new rad.

Two rag pictures! Count em! Two! Classic.

The OP's a brave little org'er. No way would I have touched my TB. I learned that lesson the hard way last year.
