can i pressure wash engine and engine bay, and if so, is there anything i should watch out for, like water in the intake or on the turbo or anything like that?

 

i pressure wash my engine, i just cover up my intake a few electrical things and spray on. but i dont have a turbo so i would know what to look out for on that set up...

 

Wiring, Intake, Turbo, Wiring and Intake being the main ones. The put a plastic bag around them

 

thx for all the help!

 

Put a plastic bag over your distributor.

Trust me...

 

Put a blastic bag on your intake filter, An another over your distrubutor.
Allow A few mintues for your headers to cool off.
Stay clear from wiring as much as possible.
Easy on The valve cover. Simple Green + Elbow Grease on The Valve Cover!

 

You don't need to take it easy on the valve cover -- you can easily blast away.. Like it's been said before: cover up the distributor cap, turbo air inlet port, air intake (if aftermarket), and try to avoid electrical areas.. You could run the car while you do it too if you want so you don't worry about it not starting.

 

i know you dont have to. i guess i just prefer scrubbing the hell out of it.. plus simple green smells bomb!
