LOL.....Looks like you've been having fun. Mine looked like that the last time I was in the mud.....even had the hood liner all splattered....LOL

I hosed mine off with a garden hose. Then sprayed it with simple green. Then sprayed it off again with the garden hose and it came out ok.

I'm using an air compressor to get rid of all the loose stuff that could fall in and then later on sometime wash it with the hose and simple green. That or just take a wet paper towel or shop cloth to it lol

I use the hose at the self serve wash for mine. Plenty powerful but I just need to be careful not to spray too directly at certain things like the plug chambers and what not. Comes out real fine. :) But my hood liner is permanently stained :p

Is this a vacuum line or something? It goes from something idk what it is into the box on top of the throttle body. And did it come with worm clamps because I don't see any...

Not the mountains.
I cover all the sensitive electric connectors then spray. Follow up with simple green, let sit, spray off again. Looks like new.:favorites13:

That is the valve cover breather hose. One one each side and they are really over sized for what they do.

Standard vacuum line for crankcase ventilation. Common for them (and others around the engine bay) to split like that. They don't have clamps - go to NAPA or another auto supply store and get a hose of the proper length in the diameter to match. It won't have the preformed bends like the OEM hose does but it will maintain the vacuum you need to avoid Check Engine Lights (CEL's.)

the complete PCV assembly (both hoses and valve) are only $12 at the dealership.

I will put up part numbers tomorrow.

Spray everything with castrol superclean. Let sit for 5 min and hose off. You wont find a better cleaner. P.S. dont spray on your fenders it could stain. It is also the BEST wheel and rim cleaner...

I think mud is a better cleaner!
