Hi.
Im wanting to clean up my engine bay, ive got some de greaser and going on what ive read im gonna cover up battery, air filter etc then blasting with jet wash. Thing is Im worried about breaking something with the water! Anyone done this? or have a better way? Cheers

Squirt your de-greaser over the engine, work it in with a brush.
I use a hosepipe to rinse rather than the power washer.

Hi !
I found when cleaning the engine compartment with a water jet, if you get any water near the headlights the bulbs tend to a few days later.
Not much but hope it helps.
