proven product thats able to clean engine bay

- Wed Jan 07, 2015 7:31 am #350837 Hello I want to know what product that has been used by users that is able to clean an engine bay.
I read about warming the engine to optimal temp and adding product X so it can somehow degrease the engine. I also read about pressure washing the engine bay with the electrical wires covered but that is not ideal.

What a proven product that has worked for you users. Thanks.

If you're engine bay is extra grimy, I'd use Gunk. I had good luck with that before. Really nasty areas I have had to blast with a can of brake cleaner but that stuff is pretty harsh.
