alright man, if you really want to get 'er clean you start by taking it all apart and cleaning each piece individually.

wa.
a bunch of socket extensions with a towel wrapped arround it, a bottle of simple green, and some brake parts cleaner. or just get undeneath the car, you can reach most anything from underneath.

I used a pressure washer on some parts towards the bottom.
You have to be very careful though and not hit sensative areas.
I used it towards the bottom of the block as I had some accumulated oil leaks.
I also would like to mention that it worked awesome and I did not have any problems result from it.

One experience.

BTW, you have to get an avatar, Craig.
Also add your location too.
Whenever I see your posts, I am not sure it is you. heheh
