Default Cleaned Engine

Nice Engines all and great job you did on them. I was thinking of power washing my engine but I was too nervous about getting water into places it should not be. So i used some krud kutter and removed what i can of all the dirt that was there and armor all for plastic and hoses.

Still more work to be done.

Definitely be careful with the spray down of the engine. When I'm at a coin-wash, I use the finest settings (spray) or I don't hit the "trigger" and stay away from electrical stuff.

Simple green, WD40, some "Tire-Jizz" on the hoses and black plastic parts and good to go!!!

I actually didn't use any kind of power wash. I used a damp cloth with krud kutter cleaned down what I could. I am a lady have have very small hands so my hand fits down in all the small parts
