Instructions
1. Park the car in the shade so that the sun doesn't shine directly on the engine area.

Onlookers don't examine the engine, so most bodies don't wash it. Most common people forget approximately the dirt, mud and road grime that cause up under the hood and on engine components. The engine and engine bay should be cleaned at least a few times a year, but should be done properly to avoid water damage.
Use the pressure washer to spray off the Simple Green. A sponge may be needed on really dirty areas. Point the sprayer toward the engine bay, stand back as far away from the engine as possible and spray directly at the parts until the water runs clear (no more foam or bubbles from the Simple Green).
4. Remove all of the tape and trash bags from the parts. Drive the car for at least five or Ten minutes to dry most of the engine components.
