This is my buddies’ way of getting parts spotless and with an extra rinse cycle. I'm cryin' laughing my ass off as I’m typing!
I saw the thing and said "how the hell did ya get it so clean". I didn't believe him, till he e-mailed the pic. I would definitely be sleeping in the shed with the car if I tried this.

dude I was doing that in high school with pistons and oil pumps and heads until my mom came home early one day. I thought she was going to burn my car to the ground.

Funny shit Grin  It's never even crossed my mind. I was used to seeing the "rainbow" runnin' down the street. It was all bio degradable gas for sure though. Never hurt the environment.

When I was Jim's house mate, I had a case in the dishwasher and I had no dish washer detergent so I used a few drops of regular dish detergent. So a few minutes goes by and I'm sitting at the couch with my back to the kitchen enthralled on a new episode of the Simpson's. I turn to look in the kitchen to see a solid foot thick blanket of suds covering the entire kitchen floor and counter. Suds were coming out of the sink drain, the garbage disposal, the dishwasher. It was every where and my wife was going to be home from work in a matter of minutes. So i opened the back door and started to sweep suds out the back door. I had it all cleaned up within minutes of my wife and Jim returning home.
