Leftoutside 0 Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 Just bath the engine parts in Gunk, engine degreaser and then wash down with a stiff brush and some water. That should do the trick shouldnt take long either. Link to post Share on other sites
hvr6 88 Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 seriously though.... steam clean whilst it's running and have it hot before you start so it will dry the water out of HT leads, dont spray the air filter or coilpack, try not to spray anything electrical and cover if possible the battery, use some degreaser on the worst bits :-) Link to post Share on other sites

rodney 17 Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 Check the premium discounts section. If I recall then there are discounts to be had from some of the better supply companies for productsAs Said... simples... Spray engine - brush areas clean (not to harsh a brush) - wash off.The only problem is once it's clean of crap you will then want to polish and paint stuff... LOL it will become adictive...

I reckon that GUNK Spray Cannister is the best, or you can get big tub non spray as well..A bit of water from your hose, don't have it jettin, just tricklin/dribblin and brush off gently!Areas around the top, were plastics and HT leads are, use some brake cleaner!! Dogs bollocks! Link to post Share on other sites
