This is a general "How-To" turbo a car series.

In this episode, I clean the pistons and valves with ChemDip, and clean a bunch of other bottom end components in preparation for the rebuild. Everything must come off of the pistons so they can accept their new coatings, coming up in the next episode.

The vehicle, named Daario, is a 1997 Mercedes Benz E320 (W210), with the 3.2l I6 (M104.995) engine, and has ~150k miles on it.
