Cleaning engine \ engine bay ?????

Post by FzCobra »

Whats a good way to clean the engine, engine bay, under hood, etc,,? Any tips?
One of the things that impressed me when I purchased my car, was how clean the dealership had got engine area.
Now, its full of dust mainly, some grease, and a few leaves and bird feathers.

THis guys method is good. Be careful though his voice will put you to sleep it's so relaxing.

Only think I would do different is like take out the easy stuff like the air box and intake assembly and clean that outside the car. Cover the intake then you can get down the front of the engine more easily. I usually just use simple green degreaser, lots of choices tough.
