Engine degreaser or Simple Green at full strength will get pretty much anything clean, but you'll need to rinse with a high pressure hose after.

Seriously though, a motor is going to get dirty. Is this a show car or something? Keep the paint clean and enjoy it.

What, you don't keep your motor clean? If you read my first post you would see that it's not grease or oil, it's those little white specks that build up on aluminum after steam cleaning it.

No kidding it's going to get dirty! I figured you guys would take care of both body and what's under the hood. The hoods been closed and I've been driving. It's just that there is a lot of deposit built up and I simply asked what works best. 1st time Mustang owner here.

It's just been a long time since I owned a NICE ride. I want to take care of it as best as I can. And it is definetly NO ricer. "I will add MODS rather than facades."

I don't know you, but thanks for the reply.

Just keep your sarcasm to yourself next time.

The white spots are there because it was "hard" water that got used on the block. If it had been distilled you wouldn't haven that problem.

Of course, if you could take a little good natured ribbing once in a while, you'd probably have a lot less problems. Maybe you should buy a Civic next time.

I already owned both an 01 Civic and 99 Accord. My 05 Chevy Cobalt beats them both.

Here's a pic of the Accord:
