BTW, do the xd3t and the xd2s use the same crankshaft?
Also, with the engine compartment bare and all the nooks and crannies
visible and accessible, I notice a lot of grease, caked oil and dust,
etc. Before putting an engine into it I will probably try to get as
much of the stuff out as possible. It would be helpful to hear what
others have used to tackle similar situations. I was thinking of just
using a good spray on degreaser followed up by scrubbing with a coarse
brush, and then a hot water rinse. Are there better ways? Are there
wires and connections I should watch out for on a diesel car? thanks
