good tip on cleaning the motor at the local car wash,, but be careful the slant six exhaust manifolds are really prone to cracking,, if hit with water when they are hot,,,
so,, no problem,, just get there early, let the car sit for an hour or so till the manifold is good and cool,, put some foil over the distributor and go at it..

I never thought of using tin foil to cover a distributor, good tip, shows that you are never too old to learn.
I just bought a 78 w150 that the original 92 year old owner never cleaned the motor, and it needs it bad.
