[McMurphy]

My rig sat in a back lot off a dirt road for at least 6 years, and come the end of September when I brought it home, it was already gettting too cold to take it to the car wash and spray it down. Plus it was not running at the time which would have made it more difficult.
I am now paying the price because I have to clean each and every thing and it is fine powder dust (volcanic ash content) to boot.

I am in total awe and envy of that hot power washing you got man! You will make much faster progress than I can with it all clean like that.

You got a fun build going on here, I am so dialed in to watch.
