Then simple green the entire car and blow it off. I've sort of stopped using WD40. I use Maxima SC1 after it's all clean, let that sit for 30 seconds and then wipe off with a rag. Put the car back together and replace bearings and fuel line if necessary.
thanks for the tip on the maxima sc1
gonna have to give that a try
