So, pops and I replaced the bypass hose on mom's '91 Dakota. PITA but we managed. However, since we got everything apart, we figured to replace some other stuff before we put it back together.
One of the things of concern is the engine is EXTREMELY greasy. I know nothing of the history of the truck, which was previously owned by my grandpa but I'd say it's leaking oil from pretty much everywhere that it can, LOL. Not to mention it blew gallons of coolant all over the ****ing place when the bypass hose blew which didn't help anything. The area under the heater hose alone had a quarter inch of gunk under it and the rest of the engine is similar.
So, anyone have any recommendations for degreasing an engine?
