2006 Lincoln Town Car - 200,000 km before wash...

Hey guys,

This car belongs to a family friend ('uncle' if you will) who happens to own and operate a fleet of these town cars. This particular one had 200,000+ KMs on the odometer, so there was a lot of build up, but I decided if I could do this job quick, easily and effectively it would turn into a quick $30 for about 25 minutes of work.

Process:
- Rinsed with Electric Pressure washer on LOW.
- Sprayed entire engine down with purple power bio-degradeable degreaser full cut (airfilter box, battery, alternator covered).
- Scrubbed with medium bristle brush
- Rinsed with PW
- Dressed with AA Tire foam (8 for $4 - cashier accident)

Aaron..what a save on that motor..it sure looked like it had 200k on it..not now!!

 

WOW impressive turn around and 25 minutes WOW!!!

 

night & day difference, wow!

 

Wow, never saw this thread. Awesome work m4gician!

 

Thanks buddy, i'll try and post more of these up.

 

damn!!!

 

What a difference that made!

 

I do the same technique on most of my engine jobs as well. It does not say how you dried the engine before the AA tire foam, but I use a leaf blower and it works great. It takes about 10 min off your time if you used one!

Great job!

:applause2:

 

WOW, looks good to me...:thumb:

 

Actually I used good old fashioned terry cloth rags (the ones you wash with a hose), soaked up a lot of the water ran the engine for about 5-7minutes (i hate idling personally). After running the engine, I drove the thing "spirited-ly" around the block a few times, came back, and used good old AA tire foam.

 

Wow nice turnaround! 2006 and 200,000 miles??? Wow, he must really work that thing!

 

Awesome turnaround on that engine! Man that thing was just nasty!

 

Well done, great turn around on the engine bay :cheerl:

 

Hey bud..where the hell have you been?? Good to see you back on here!!!:thumb:
