Subject:      Cleaning the engine bay...
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

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
