Washing Bare head and IM

Is it alright to wash these things with simple green and then just spray them off with water? I always thought it would rust. Thanks

you can spray it with water as long as you dry it real good with compressed air

CARB cleaner worked wonders for me.....also a little elbow grease and a wire brush or your tooth brush for the head cylinders and exhuast ports
