"Hi I'm Doug. I work with twenty great guys in St. Louis at Doug Jenkins Custom Hot Rods, and we're going to do some work for you today on Expert Village. Now Mark's going to be spraying some engine degreaser in here. I've used oven cleaner, I've used a variety of diesel fuel and gasoline to do this sort of stuff. If you go to the parts store you can buy foaming engine cleaner. That's what he's using here. Some of them say no masking, that's the kind you want to buy here. You don't want to get the kind that eats up wires and eats up hoses and stuff. Get the kind that you can spray right on wires and hoses. We just want to get all the old dirt and grease and yuck out of here. We run a pretty decent outfit, I want to do all of our jobs clean, but it's just no fun to work in the dirt and mess anyhow. So we spray that on there and let is soak in real good, and you get ready to rinse it off. It works better on a warm day, it's a little cold today, we'll be okay though."
