simple green+ toothbrush

its important to put a protectant on after cleaning such as the sonus engine protectant.
+1 on the Simple Green. Make sure you use this on a cold engine.

I do not use protectant - never a problem in over 14+ years of being anal about a clean engine bay. :)

another simple green fan here....

i avoid superclean as it can damage finishes on many items

(think about your fancy battery tie downs and oil caps)

simple green is safe for the environment (animals, drainage, etc)

superclean is not....


usually I just spray it on
scrub lightly where needed with a detail brush

hose off

towel dry...

takes about 10 mins.

and works well.

That it is! :D When you use the pure concentrate... it'll clean/degrease anything. It's pretty crazy.

Does anyone ever get a squeky noise coming from the clutch after they wash their engine? I'm getting one and its sketchingme out.
Yeah, I do. Whenever it rains around here my clutch pedal seems squeaky.
