Hey everyone, so I've barely started on my 71 satellite. Really, I'm starting with throwing a new gas tank in, which has turned into a bigger project of course. So I figured if I were doing it I'd do the vapor separator too (once I learned what it is).
Luckily my wheel well mounted separator is in great shape, so is the shield that goes over the hoses. I understand those parts are usually wasted and not really possible to get, so thats a win! But what isn't win is how coated in crap they are.
I've only got a few other old cars, I usually keep them as i found them and just add new parts. This satellite is the first one I'm actually semi-restoring and making nice. So I haven't really dabbled in greasy under car gunk removal (unless chipping giant chunks of dried mud with a chisel counts).
I'm curious how you guys take care of degreasing and serious crud removal. Looking for some ideas or pointers before I endlessly empty can after can of degreaser.
