can i wash an engine with degreaser by hand?

B Caz

I want to wash my car's engine. The nearest pressure washer place is closed. I live too far out in the country. Can i wash it using degreaser and a bucket and cloth?

Answer
Make sure the engine is cold... Spray degreaser on the engine... Let it set for awhile, wash it of with a garden hose... Your good to go after you sop up the water off the engine...

External car engine clean up?

Mario B

I own a 2004 Ford Taurus SES and I am slowly restoring the car to top condition. One of things that I want to do is to clean the engine (not internally) but the externally, so that not just the car looks great but the engine to look like it came from the factory. I live in Saint Peters burg FL and would like to know if anyone specializes in this. If so how much would it cost to do this. Any info would be great.

Thank you,

Answer
Degreaser and a pressure washer. Just don't get to close with the pressure washer and let the engine dry completely before starting again.
