@pelunskii wolf
Dish soap and warm water with a soft bristle brush (ex: toothbrush) works decently.
Considering how caked that is, you'll want to spray white vinegar on it first and let that sit on the chrome for 15 minutes.

10-15 minutes.

And instead of spraying the vinegar, you may want to rub it onto the chrome.

You may want to look into Krud Kutter too to get the primary crap cleaned off and then follow up with the soap and warm water.

@thecraftydragon I feel good now knowing that my brother can't pick on me for not driving stick anymore lol

@cruzzzer
Excellent.
Plus if you need to rent a car and the only available rentals are manual transmissions / sticks, you're not s.o.l.

Next up, unless you already know how, are motorcycles. 🏍️

🛵.

You can typically rebuild manual transmissions in your garage fairly easily if you have a press and some mechanical skills

Even the simplest of automatics can be a nightmare

Years ago, 1980's when I was racing built up a couple of rock crushers. Easy to do with proper tools.

@ThatShadyVandal , what is the install?
