Cleaning your engine can help to prevent the buildup of dirt and other debris, which can reduce its life expectancy. When cleaning the engine, prop the hood to gain access to the engine. The engine should be cool before continuing. Ensure that the air intake filter is removed and any electrical components are well covered.
Start by spraying off any dirt or debris with a garden hose and ensure that the pressure is not too high to avoid damaging the engine. Then, use a degreaser to dissolve any grease or oil buildup on the engine and allow it to soak before rinsing with water. Scrub off any hard-to-remove spots with a brush and then rinse through after you are sure that the engine is clean.
You can use a compressed air hose to dry the engine or use a dry cleaning towel. Re-install the engine and air intake filter.
