Grant 4 Report post Posted January 24, 2004 nah - cosmoline is the yellowy buildup that builds up on the top of the intake manifold and the vavle cover. Andrew I know has got rid of it on his car (I remember him hassling me about it on my car at the Show N Shine thingee at the BMW NZ HQ My engine bay cleaning has begun....after what I imagine is 14 years of build up of crap in my engine bay.
