FILTHY Engine Bay Detail on a 32 Year Old Mazda Miata | Like NEW Again!

The Detailing restoration of the MX-5 Mazda Miata Begins! In today's video, we transform this 32 year old engine bay back to its former glory. After sitting under a tree for years, this engine was FILTHY and needed a DEEP CLEAN! So join me as we remove leaves, twigs, grease, dirt and more!

While I still have no idea what to do with this car, I know it's my duty to at least detail it back to life. In my previous video, I mention how this 1991 NA Mazda Miata fell into my hands and i's my job to figure out what's done with it. While the entire car is FILTHY and needs a detailing transformation, I thought starting with detailing the engine bay would get me on the right track. I've made several videos on engine bay detailing and deep cleaning, but this is the first car to sit under a tree that I've done. By the end, you would never know this Miata was ever exposed to the elements! Crazy results.

I began the detail with removing as many leaves and twigs as I could by hand. From there, I vacuumed up the remaining leaves, dirt, sand, and even a straw. I then bagged the intake to prevent water from getting into it. The engine was then treated with an all purpose cleaner and iron removing wheel cleaner. This combo tends to break down grease, oil, and lift dirt from the surface. The hood underside was scrubbed, and then the bay was carefully sprayed with a pressure washer. The bay was then cleaned with brushes and more all purpose cleaner. Unfortunately, some of the scrubbing shots were lost on the go pro, but trust me when I say that I scrubbed a LOT.

Once the engine bay was scrubbed and deep cleaned, I rinsed the bay, and then dressed it with Koch Chemie Motorplast. This is the cherry on top to restore the black hoses, plastics, and give the paint a nice glow! Overall, this engine had a huge transformation and it's restored to a MUCH better state. SO hopefully you guys enjoyed the process as well!
