Talking Amazing results from Fluid Motor Union

Hey all,

Well I finally got my car back after having "issues" with it as most of you know.

I just wanted to share pics of what the guys at Fluid did for me. I had asked for them to clean the engine for me and this is what I got.


nasty engine shot



gross near the coil packs



plenums are dull and cruddy



Look at the difference between the two sides




valve covers look brand new



final product looking good...wiring was hidden from hids and others. And had some other stuff installed as well.......




These guys went waaaayyyy beyond the extra mile. Finally, the kind of service that we have been looking for.

Craig is the man!

If you don't mind me asking, what is the approximate cost of an engine cleaning like that?

thanks guys,

Craig pulled most of the engine apart to install some things, so we figured why not, expecially since we are going to be bringing her to a couple of shows soon.

I honestly don't know how much it was as it was bundled in with the rest of the stuff they did with the car including new valve cover gaskets and stuff.

I guess the sludge that was under the oil cap (creamy colored liquid stuff) is typical on the foreign cars, and can lead to misfires, bad starting and the like.

Im sure the extra coolent that was running through the engine didnt help things either.
