OK it won't kill your engine, however the power sprayers can force water through gaskets, fuse boxes, loosen wiring harnesses and potentially get into wiring that would normally not be exposed too the elements, you also want to ensure if the engine is Hot, the water is not real cold. And if you must spray, let that baby dry out good before starting up so your dash doesn't light up like an Xmas tree.

I clean my engine with regular Windex, some Armor-All, and paper towels, every month I might polish the chrome parts, the more you clean the engine, the easier it is and the time to clean it actually decreases. (my engine cleaning time currently runs around 15 minutes Max), Peace Bro
