1 Answer

As I've stated before, be packin 1.) a floorjack 2.) a can of WD-40 3.) a roll of quarters. 4.) use a can of foamy engine brite and douse the entire greasy parts 5.) set the machine to hot wash 6.) high pressure blast the grease off 7.) avoid striking electrical high-voltage components with high-blast water Many people think that pressure washing an engine is not good, but if you think about it is designed to take water (a bit)- Whichever, it will behave when doused with WD water displacer and will dry and start okay....don't worrry...now you'll get to see what's oily!
