I am planning on slowly working through each corner and also cleaning/inspecting the engine and trans too. I plan to flush most of the fluids and hit all the grease points as I get to them.

Any cleaner products or methods you guys can recommend so I can get this beast where I can actually see the parts I working on? Probably pull the plug wires and cap so I can bag/tape those, then I was planning on getting the pressure washer up in that son of a gun!

Also want to give it a buff with the random orbital my buddy has. I hot one spot with some detailer shine and it's got potential!

Pretty new to engine work other than bolt ons for my 2010 wrx so.....trouble shooting this thing and tuning it up should be awesome to learn!

Can't decide if my uncle,"Lohgbed65", is more excited or if I am!
