Any one rate it? Anyone tried it, and have had some dodgy experiences?

Keep the engine running when cleaning it and don't get the wand too close to the electricals.

Don't steam clean a hot engine either as it will strip the laquer/paint especially if you have used Gunk

 

[mmvcorsa129]

keep a can of wd40 handy to disperce any wanter from plugs leads, coil packs etc

works really well, i jet washed mine. comes up good

just dont go mad with it

 

[lynx69]

same with jet-washing, make sure your engine is running, you may also need to keep some in the car to keep the revs up because if your distributer or sparkies get flooded, you'll have to wait a long time before you can drive the car, you'll have to wait until everything has dried up :laugh: im speaking from experience

lets just say my engoine was black and grimey when i got it , after a half hour steam cleaning it it came up lovely, well worth the effort

i havent done mine in a few months just wipe it over with a clean cloth now and again.

its due for another clean.

cant really see from this pic nfortunately . . . . car was undergoing a "change at the time as well, notice the big self tapper on the air feed . . . . .lol

just make sure engine is running and keep the airbox/filter protected from steam/water

exactly i used polythene bags and cable ties to cover the induction kit and a few other ancilaries and electrical parts

 

[jt999]

cant do that with the engine running though surely? will cut off the air supply and die wont it?

You dont spray the induction kit, and it wont penetrate the airbox

dont think its likely they have an induction kit and an airbox?
but yeah, enging should be running at all times

 

[jt999]

exactly i used polythene bags and cable ties to cover the induction kit and a few other ancilaries and electrical parts

I meant as in using bags over your induction kit will surely stop your engine running... I stop my RC Car engine by blocking the air filter, surely it works the same on big cars too?

dont spray the induction kit or it wont penetrate the airbox if you have one.

Better?
