OK, i know its a bit of a girly post... but I have just spent the past half hour digging mud out from under my motor. Does anybody have any great ideas for removing the endless piles of mud after a weekends play? The motor has been jetwashed etc but the bash guards and other bits are still cake'd in cack!

Im holding out for one closer to £100 if possible ... even if it needs plenty of welding etc (what motor under £500 doesnt need welding!). If nothing turns up its back to the bank manager (missus) for more pennies   Sad

I haven't tried it - but I did hear of someone putting a rotating lawn sprinkler thingie under his truck and leaving it on for half an hour.  I'm told that it works very well.

Cheers

Thats not dirty, you should have seen Rabbitt after he eventually dug up the courage.
Leave the mud in place for a couple of days under the geuards then poke it with a welding rod a bit through the holes, when you drive down the road later little mud missiles start shaking free behind you, wake the Chorley sunday drivers up a bit Twisted Evil
