need help with this issue........
hi folks..
is it safe to wash under the hood with high pressure of water or are there any special treatments such as steaming to clean the dirty engine and around the area? since my engine looks dirty so thought of giving a wash...
what do you say?

yeah don't worry about it. Just keep the hose at a good distance. Make sure to put a bag over any mods you have in the engine too..mainly intakes. Spray the engine with a solvent first to eat through the grease
