Engine wash

how about yung intercooler mga sir? di ba pwedeng mabasa yun?

Yes, it can get wet. It's no different from the radiator or a/c condenser. Only difference is it cools the air to be used by the engine instead of cooling coolant or refrigerant.

Does a hot radiator+engine wash=premature leak of radiator?

Not really. What I'm concerned is if the guys spray the engine with cold water while it's still hot. This is important for those newer aluminum engines. The cast iron diesels should have no problems though.

newer cars are more delicate because of to many electrical components. older cars are delicate in the sense that we dont know how brittle some parts are over time. protect your investments...

Magpa engine wash ka na lang kay waxdaddy astig yung waterless engine detailing nyan! (

hanep sa endorsement) ganda ng mga output though di ko pa nasubukan kasi gusto ko after ng tune-up ko gagawin yun pero for sure malapit ko na gawin yun hehe gusto ko magpaganun kasi automatic yung car ko para safe. Sure safe ka pa kasi mga PRO na yung mga yun and take note: WATERLESS! engine detailing.

sir... i've already tried a quick DIY engine wash... ok naman po sya...
hindi lang me satisfied po ay yung sa part na nabanggit nyo... halos
iniwasan ko talaga ng spray ng tubig yung mga nasa harapan (radiator
and a/c condenser... so you mean po ba na ok lang basain yung mga
parts na ito... puro alikabok at dumi po kasi... TIA
btw... garden hose po gamit ko... di masyadong malakas ang buga...

Mas maganda nga kung ikaw na lang maglinis ng engine bay mo para maingatan mo iyong hindi dapat mabasa. At kung palaging malinis ito hindi na mahirap linisin punas punas na lang .Huwag lang hayaan na mamuo alikabok at langis sa makina.
