I have used this product but instead of using water to rinse it, I use a powerful leaf blower to blow residual degreaser. I use a towel to wipe areas that had overspray.

[@gregflores8959]

Smart way to go about it Mr. 1977, that’s what I do exactly, no problems ever.👍🏽

[@africanredemption15]

I do similar but I use a hand held steamer with a large towel❤

[@johnbutler1279]

I use a pressure washer just not 5 inches from the motor Assy. Couple feet away has never failed me.

[@richwinegar5517]

I strongly suggest using a garden hose. Pressure washer will put water in places you dont want.

[@D-Man_Jam]

rule#1 of cleaning your engine is dont use pressure washers

[@iulianispas8634]

The engine cleaner is highly corosive you dont whant any left on the engine pressure wash is on if the engine is disel on petrol only not recomand

Definitely a products that stands out amongst all others. I have been using it for years. I have used pressure washer all my life, however it is best to wash from TOP only. (let the water flow down wards)

Just bought this product, just wanted to check it out before I used it. Great Video man, appreciate you posting this 👍

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for your feedback

[@bdawg8907]

I’ve used a Tornado air gun under the hood, it does a decent job of removing most dust and dirt before washing.

[@bdawg8907]

I’ve used gunk for showers too, strong smell indoors but works better than any ‘normal’ bathroom cleaner.

Thanx bro I used poleks engine degreaser and it worked amazing it even return the shiny look of the front AC radiator

[@AliMECH]

That's great, but don't leave them for a long time, they fade paint and plastic in a long term usage

[@clemmahabir]

Gunk has a biodegradable spray which I use and works great! I cover my electrical fuse and electronics with plastic bags and lightly spray the engine off with water low or no pressure.

[@ProJanitor]

Never use a pressure washer. Just use degreaser, a soft brush and a hose.

I don't even want to spray the hose in there 🤣🤣 it's gonna get all fucced up 🤔

[@mikegresham9424]

Anytime you clean an engine with water and or degreasers you damage the electrical terminal connectors and wiring...just use a wet rag and take time wiping down

[@cornerstrike]

My biggest concern was with the alternator. Getting it soaked like that I think was not a good idea.

[@808drummerpercussionist9]

Thank you. I didn't like the it sprays, it has a stream not a misty spay, it splattered all over.....so I just bought the foam and will be giving it a try,

[@noahriding5780]

Can you use this on the bottom side of the engine also? And do you want to rinse more than once, or do more than once cycle with this? Thank you for sharing your experience and skills with us.

Yes you can!, I have an old video and cleaned oil pan with it, here kzbin.info/www/bejne/j3XCl6qFm754hck

[@DarrenBoxhall]

Never use degreaser under the bonnet unless it's actually covered in oil. It will cloud up plastic, rubber and ally. Just use a ph neutral soap like CT18 on a bottle diluted then wash it off.

[@jackhook4192]

Save yourself a lot of money and just use spray tire cleaner let it dry on engine compartment. Works great

[@dohnny123]

Thank you for the video..will be trying this

[@AliMECH]

You’re welcome

[@grisleigh]

I suspect that the results would be similar with just the pressure washer? 🤔🤔

[@yonski1705]

I have tried to use the tire cleaner foam on the engine, particularly at the black colored parts (plastics, hoses/pipes, etc), it has the same results...

[@AliMECH]

It gives oily layer, but they are not degreaser,

[@Voltrondefenderoftheuniverse]

I use distilled water ., it won’t effect the electronics and not cause rust on any electric terminals and won’t leave green ash corrosion

[@asherqamar4579]

One major thing he forgot, guess what? yes, he forgets to cover the Alternator with a plastic bag.

[@RoyalHunter2789]

He's still trying to start the car

[@darrellminx5459]

Damn right

[@rendor21]

NEVER pressure wash a car engine! He's using an electric pressure washing with relatively low PSI. An engine powered pressure washer would do lots of damage!

[@Kungpaoshizzi]

The real question is, what will be negatively affected if dirty, vs what will be negatively affected if wet?

[@Easyrider4732]

You never run water on your engine like that unless you cover vital electronic parts water can get into the sparkplug sockets and other electrical parts that's a no no.

[@volt8684]

Bullshine. Cars are now water proof

[@em-qk4go]

There's no issue if the electrical components are NOT engergized. Diconnecting the battery's negative post would be sufficient and not reconnecting until everything's completely dry. By your logic, most vehicles wouldn't survive a rainstorm while driving through puddles, which begs to question because those components are energized while operating the vehicle.

[@lisalohand4753]

I I'm amazed, it was good one Ali

[@AliMECH]

Thanks

[@peterrudy9207]

This has solvents in it , said to not be good for rubber and plastics . I use Zep Heavy Duty Citrus Degreaser or any other citrus based degreasers and best if biodegradeable .

[@strxwbwy]

wish i had heard about this before lol now im afraid, sitting here letting it soak rn

[@peterrudy9207]

@@strxwbwy The engine seems to be just dirty and no oily / grease build up . In this case I would use a citrus based degreaser as they are less harsh and biodegradeable . Though I have used this same one in the 1980s on an engine with grease and oily deposits . I suspect many people do not use a funnel when pouring oil into their engine and it spills .

[@peterrudy9207]

Great job. But I think using water is not a goid idea because there are electronic and electrical connection all around the engine. What if we leave the degreaser without wash?

[@eduardodaquiljr9637]

What will happen to sensors,connectors,sockets,modules,ecu,alternator?

[@miguelnavarro1682]

99% of those are water RESISTANT, NOT WATERPROOF. Never use a pressure washer, a garden hose with a soft spray nozzle will work perfectly fine . Most of those components gets wet during rainy drives but a pressure washer is way too much

[@Cocora22]

It's OK to use pressure washer on this engine. It doesn't have electrical connections or computers to worry about. I would have also sprayed inside the car while i was at it.

[@AndrewEvans-us6mv]

Can this be used on diesel 🙏🏼

[@AliMECH]

Sure

[@frankb5953]

Is it a good idea to pressure wash the engine though? The pressure might force it into electronic components. A garden hose seems like a safer option?

[@AliMECH]

Sure it's safer, but my pressure washer at lowest setting, it doesn't even harm hand if I put my hand in front of the nozzle

[@Striker50_]

Hell no. 90% of those parts are made in China and you have exposed connectors. Great way to F up something expensive

[@aruns2433]

Very after some time all sensors will go bad water will eventually sip into them

Pressure washing from 3 inches away on exposed connectors is crazy.... Really Bad advice 👎

[@olduhfguy]

Best if sprayed on a warm engine, heavy deposits require loosening up with a stiff brush and soaking 15 min before rinsing.

You can, but it evaporates the cleaner and don't let it degrease the oil

​@@peterrudy9207what brands are these citrus based cleaners and where can I find it?

[@lgoamity]

Showing the 3 "flavors"... I'm curious about the "Gel" variant. Anyone with Experience with that? Since this Video Speculates that the "Foam" version's use on the Undersided of the Hood ran off quickly and didn't have enough cleaner/time to perform very well... Curious if the "Gel" does provide enough "cling" and possibly foam/moisture to help breakdown any grime it hits... Assuming the Gel doesn't run off during the 10-15 minutes allowing for it to loosen grim... I assume the Gel might "foam up" during the Rinse Cycle providing more cleaning action? Though probably the need for a second or third Rinse to clear all yhe gel/cleaner?

[@massoudpn]

The main point of using the spray is to avoid using high-pressure water. That was a big mistake you made.
