To clean the engine bay?

What does anyone use to clean their engine bay? I wasn't for sure if there was something specific that everyone prefered to use to clean their engine bay... Or if you guys just powerwashed it...Thanks

Simple Green works well just don't get it on aluminum parts. I'm no detailing expert others will chime in but I use the sprayer at a car wash on the low setting don't want to force water into any place it shouldn't be!

Wet the motor down to remove and loose dirt, spray it down with simple green. Let it sit a few minutes and clean it off with the hose. Don't let the simple green dry!! After clean the areas that still have dirt with simple green and a rag. After that I blow all the water off with my compressor and towel dry. I wouldn't do it in this weather though, unless you are putting it in a heated garage for a couple of days.

Also don't use simple green at full strength, dilute with water 60/40 with the 60% being simple green.

Another tip if you've got a nasty engine bay is to use a paint brush to work and loosen the gunk once you wet it down with simple green.

That works well to get into crevices that a rag won't really get into.

i could be wrong but i think you do not want to power wash. Just use a hose or a hose w/nozzle that has a shower setting.

X2 dont power wash

It's really no big deal man as long as you don't spray directly on the electronic components. Some products I use are Adams Polishes General Purpose Cleaner or Black Magic 2 in 1 Engine Cleaner with a Boars hair brush. If you do it yourself you will save yourself some money.
