Engine Cleaning & Detailing - Autopia.org

This is a start. There are a lot of articles out there about engine bay cleaning and care; mostly on the detailing-oriented web sites.

On my 87 SL, I won't go near it with a power washer like some use. Be very careful with the electronics. I do as much as I can by hand.
