The under bonnet fuse box on my Clio is missing its cover and has got seriously gunked up to point that its actually managing to short out. Any tipes on getting the grime out, it feels like it could do with a good blast of air but I haven't got a compressor?

If it shorting out then air won't clean out the gunk, What I use is Servisol Super 10 Contact and Switch Cleaner, DON'T BREATHE IT IN and its FLAMMABLE http://www.maplin.co...ner-200ml-jp17t

Its available loads of places, I get mine from the electrical factor in boxes of 12.

brake cleaner, lift the fuse box out and look underneath if you want a laugh ;-)
