1969 AMC AMX engine bay restoration

Project AMX Barn Find got its bottom scrubbed!

We are trying to get the AMX Barn Find ready for its new engine. The first step is to clean and paint the engine bay but thought we should also do a little detail work on the underside. It was decided to also make this a Product Review project at the same time.

We think you might find this Review very interesting and useful. The traditional cleaning method for your greasy underside has been steam cleaning, media blasting for the really messy or spaying on Gunk or some similar product. We had always heard that Easy Off Oven Cleaner was a better grease cleaner than Gunk. Personally, I have found Gunk and similar products nearly worthless.

I went to the local grocery store and picked up two cans of Easy Off at $6 per can and two cans of generic oven cleaner at $2 per can. How will they do? How do they compare? Should they go in the “do not buy trash can”?

What did we do? How well did they work? Click Here to get the results and you can check out the photos below for a preview.

About the Author: I grew up and lived in Iowa for nearly 40 years before moving to Southern California. The time there was very rewarding but the urge for a slower pace moved us to Tennessee a few years ago and we love it. I have been into cars since I was old enough to remember. I don't have a brand loyalty although I do prefer American Muscle. As long as it has four wheels on it I get excited. Few men are lucky enough to be able to share their passion for cars with the woman they love. Fortunately, my wife Katriana is also a gear head and many of our activities revolve around the cars. When they don't we are usually out with our miniature donkeys. You can see more about that part of our lives at http://www.LegendaryFarms.com.
