I have a pretty nasty, muddy mess under the hood that needs to be addressed

I used a power washer on my last truck...i'll never do that again

... and about a hundred or so more.....

110 % agree on not using a power washer, lol

using a power washer is as simple as selecting the proper nozzle. most of them come with 4-5 nozzles for different stuff. for a car i wouldnt use anything larger than a 3000 PSI machine with the most open nozzle. I work for a tractor supply store, ive seen people come in thinking they can buy a 6000 PSI washer on their car/ truck... i tell them "sure if you are wanting to repaint it."

 

Heres what i'm in for...

 

Where you been - In Gregory - that's where the mud boggs are out that way..

 

Just pull the housing cover and Intake - wrap the COP's in a towel.

Protect those COP's!!

 

when ever i power wash i leave my truck running. im sure everyone here knows to do that. but i still end up having to pull all the wires and blow water out of my spark plug chambers....ive had my engine look like that 2 or 3 times. lol

 

That's nasty, your best off using a bucket of soap & water, & a wash mitt, using a hose however no nozzle, set the fawcett on a low level of water pressure.............
