I just wanted to know what is the best product that you can you to clean your engine bay. I've heard that simple green gets the job done but would like more opinions and pictures on this. By the way if you do clean it with a product, the only steps you have to take is cover the battery and the air filter with a bag so that they don't get wet. Is this the only thing you have to do? And when you clean the engine bay with water, does it mess up anything? will oil come out with Simple Green? Can you use a regular hose to clean it out? thanks guys.

u better cover more than battery and filter if you want your car to run afterwards.

 

thats funny, the 4th generation forum says only to cover air intake and battery.
thanks for info. anyone got more info and some pictures of their engine bay. oh yea by the way, danny my search doesn't work.

 

Just go to the carwash, use the engine cleaner. Then spray tire foam over the engine and wipe it down. Works like a charm. This is what our club does before shows.

 

Yeah... and that's what I do to MY engine too. Take a look at my website and you'll see.

 

i also just use the engine cleaner at the car wash it works pretty good and i have never had a problem afterwords ive never covered anything but my cone

Might wanna cover the starter motor. One time i was just washing the car and just put water over the engine to get some dirt out. I've done it a million times but this time after I washed it I took it for a spin around the block and it kinda was sputtering. Then it wouldn't start up. I had to pay $300 for a new starter motor. Just thought I would throw that ou there.

 

good advice so far, but everyone has had different opinions and still no pictures of their clean or dirty engine bay

 

here you go some nice dirty engine bay pics

 

4th gen doesn't have distributor and ign wires. your VG does.
why are u listening to people in 4th gen anyway? different engines/cars.
