i really do want things to look nicer and neter under there. im going to sort out some of the wiring and the pipes make it all look a bit better. some of the vacuum pipes were just connceted so they work and i left them like that. it might have some nice engine parts on it, but it looks a but shit in places. and im not really happy with it anymore.

internally they are clean. its just externally they are not so clean any more. so far mine doesnt leak any oil inside the engine. only the sump that does.

wd40 works quite well. just tried it while i was smoking a tab. them roose hoses came up alright. tried a bit on the scuttle panel cover thing, that now shines for a bit aswell. groovy. operation make corsa engine bay look a bit neater and tidier has a touch of momentum.
