Re: Engine bay washing

[ekellock@juno.com]

One bottle of Simple Green.
One garden hose w/ spray nozzle.
One water heater.
One warm engine.

Hook hose to output of water heater.  Attach spray nozzle.  Turn on water
heater output.  Open hood.  Spray full-strength Simple Green all over. 
Let soak for a little while.  Spray engine with hose.  

I've done this many times on all my Audis, my GTI, my mom's Honda, and a
friend's VW Cabrio.  Never had one fail to start, although once in a
while it will not run very well for a little while.  Just don't get too
agressive with the spray nozzle around sensitive items like spark plugs,
intake areas, and electrics.  

Those sprayers at do-it-yourself car washes have much stronger sprays
than the average garden hose.  I would suggest being very delicate with
one of those.
