hello guys, today I'm gonna show you how I clean my car engine

this is not me teaching you about how to clean car engine properly.

but this is the way I do it

remember I'm not a professional so if you want to do this, the risk is yours

and remember never detail a hot engine

the first thing I do would be removing the battery to prevent any shorts

then I proceed to cover the fuse box

the engine's air intake.

and cover any exposed filters & electrical connections that I can see using alumunium foil

and also don't forget to cover the alternator

These are the areas that you really don't want water or degreaser pooling in

after everything is covered I use meguiars super degreaser

diluted at 4:1

4 parts of water 1 part of degreaser

then proceed to agitate with a paint brush

after it spread out nicely

I simply rinse it using a regular hose not a pressure washer.

and spray degreaser again, but this time I leave it to dwell about 1 to 3 minutes

rinse for the last time

then I use blower to dry everything

this is a blower with a heater so it makes drying faster

next step I use water based dressing this is meguiars hyper dressing diluted at 1:1

so I spray over everything and spread it out nicely with a paint brush

last step is drying it again using the blower with a heater

while removing all the cover at the same time

now before I put the negative connection back on the battery

I usually wait overnight.
