Love the work you put into an old golf, but I'm wondering, isn't it dangerous to spray water on all the loose electrical connections? Even though you disconnect the battery
@ejoautovideos4 жыл бұрын
Thank you. 😊 This is not something you want to do often, as there is always a small risk something might happen. But I pretty much eliminate all risks because I: 1. Disconnect the battery. 2. Avoid spraying directly on the ECU. 3. Spray electric spray in all connectors to drive out any water as well as protect the connectors from future oxidation. Also, the connectors has rubber seals that prevents water from getting in, so this step is an extra precaution IF a seal is leaking in a connector.

Unless you cover every single electrical component I say you're better off just hand washing everything.

You should NEVER use pressure washer on the engine, the water will force it's way into electrical connections and will sit there for days, causing corrosion.. Also generator should never get soaking wet, it can get just a lil bit wet, also you have to be careful with the pressure washer to not get it where the oil stick is and where the oil cap is, the water can get in the engine.
