Hey guys, as some of you know already the Orlando 6GC meet is this Friday and I want my engine buy cleaned out. What is the best way to clean your engine bay without messing stuff up? I've heard people pressure washing theirs and stuff like that. Also spraying degreaser and then hosing the whole bay. The only problem I am scared of is "rust" due to the water. So I plan on doing it the hard way and getting a tooth brush and some rags and towels. Just need some help to make it less work for me. Thanks guys. I appreciate it ahead of time.
Oh yeah one more thing. My valve cover is painted and as well as my radiator and intake pipe. This post has been edited by ExSane: Sep 5, 2006 - 2:15 AM --------------------  |

For a basic clean, engine cleaner and hose off. Stay away from electrical components. If you want it "show car" quality, you will need to do more.
