I need to clean the engine and bay and I'm nervous.
Want to take it to the car wash, spray the engine down with Simple Green and carb cleaner and blast it clean. What should be covered? Or should I do it at home and let it air dry? Or get a lot of Q-tips and spend a week?
I've cleaned a lot of Subaru engines by just covering the coil and alternator and car-washing them. No problems. Maxima's have more critical electricals.
How have YOU done it?
Thanks
