Cleaning the engine without Inlet manifold on?

Recommended Posts

I’m wanting to clean my m54 engine of old oil and dirt gunk before reassembly.

Mostly because I hate dirty stuff, but also because I might as well having removed this much off the engine block!

I have the inlet ports blocked with rags, but given the engine is on an angle what have others done/used to clean the head area particularly?

Just cover the intake ports with duct tape/100mph tape. 

If you want to.get real fanatic about it make up some blanking.plated out of perspex and use intake mounting points to bolt down.

I stuff the ports with rags and then use tape to cover them. 

Then get the tooth brush out and spend a year cleaning
