Hi All, Just got my new (to me) ’89 Syncro camper… the first thing I want to do is clean the heck out of it… it isn’t in bad shape but hey, detail it from the start, right! Anyway – question about cleaning the engine bay… This engine is really coated with road grime and dust… yes, I know if I clean it, it will get dirty again but… I gotta do it. The local car wash has a engine cleaner setting… it sprays some degreaser, then you’re supposed to wash the out side of the car while the engine soaks, then spray the engine bay with low pressure water to rinse off the gunk… I use it on my other cars (Toyota and Subaru) just fine every spring but anyone offer any warnings or cautions (I know ~ use LOW pressure). Anything, like vulnerable wiring/connections/computers that I should avoid? Their location in the engine bay…? Alternate method to clean the engine bay? Thanks, Al
