Engine wash

[Salanguit]

Sorry, diko alam kung nasa tamang forums ako. Tanung ko lang specially sa mga naka Mitsubishi mirage dyan kung okay lang mag engine wash ng walang tinatakpan na engine parts? Kung meron man akong dapat takpan, alin alin po yun?

Salamat.

You want to cover battery terminals and the alternator. The fuse box, ecu and scan port must also be covered.

Some use cling wrap or towels to cover these electrical components.

You want a brush to remove all the mud and grime together with a degreaser or joy solution.

I dont own like a ride like what's your. But I assume, you just like your engine bay to look neat and clean. Engine washing is ok. It is better pa nga, kung isabay mo na lang kapag nagpa under wash ka. Mabobombahan ng linis rin ilalim ng engine bay, pati mga condenser at radiator mo malilinis rin ng husto.

Never EVER have engine washed, too many things can go wrong. Water and moisture can go in areas where they are not supposed to go in to. Your connectors might rust if moisture remains there.

Even in the casa? Because the last time I bought my gen 10 in for PMS, my SA said it needs an engine wash because it was so dirty.

Personally i'll go for the old ways of cleaning the engine bay by using blowers and wipe with a clean rag.

Though electical connectors today isnt the same of those one built a decade ago, its weather sealed but still not waterproof.

Ang gandang pagmasdan, kapag bagong engine wash. Kalinis tignan, bagamat it is more than a 10 year old vehicle.

most parts in the engine bay are rust proof.

Let's just agree that vehicle engines weren't designed to have water sprayed directly to it.

[StockEngine]

Engine bay parts are waterproofed. Exposed Electricals must be protected.

Agree?

[rodetor]

Yes I agree. Some electrical are must be protected, even though they are water proof. But for me, I most prefer the engine bay to be washed, pinatutuyo naman yan gamit ang hangin mula sa air compressor. Best way to have it washed, is after the engine's heat had settled down. Kaya ako, after magpa-under washed at saka ko pinata trabaho ang engine bay to be washed in some service Gas Station. Sa CASA nga nuon, kaya pala inaabot abot ako ng tagal sa pag aantay, bukod sa mga screening check nila sa unit before ipasok sa service bay, ay ganun procedure ang ginagawa nila.

I clean the engine bay myself.

I use small towels to cover the battery terminals and fuse box or any other sensitive parts.

I use water bottle spray for wetting and rinsing the engine. I have total control on what parts get wet.

I use Meg's Engine Degreaser and Meg's Engine Dressing.

Okay, so majority eh pwede naman basain, coveran lang yung ibang parts. alternator, battery terminals(eto yung negative -positive na cable?), fusebox(have yet to locate where in the engine bay it is located),

*StockEngine, anu yung ECU(i have the impression computer box to), at scan port, anu itsura nung scanport? Hanapin ko sa manual kung san nakapwesto.

*Red_one, detailis master, try ko yung spray bottle technic, kahit mukang nakakapagod ata :-))

Diko kaya tyagain yan ng papunas yan, kulang ang isang buong araw kapag ako maglinis. Pagkatapos na lang ma engine wash, tsaka ko nililinis yung iba anik anik ng husto. Di mo makikita ng clear yung windshield wash reservoir at nung PS reservoir at color ng chassis kung hindi hugas ang gagawin o engine wash.
