Re: engine clean up
not really just do it while its running. you dont want the distributor cap wetting while its off cuz the car wont start until its dry. and if you use a pressure washer do it from a distance. thats how i do mine. never had a problem.
also use a good degreaser and hand scrub parts you can get to, you will get better resultsits might just be a family sedan, but girls love this car

Re: engine clean up
Don't do it when the engine is hot. You don't really want to splash cold water on hot engine parts.
Some people cover their alternator, I never have though. Just don't spray water at it directly.
Do you have a CAB or CAI? Cover up the filter with a grocery bag or something if you do.

Re: engine clean up
i never have... i mean i don't sit there and spray large amounts of water at my alternator or anything. i throw some degreaser(kind in the car wash system) let it sit, go to the tires with it, and come back and spray it all off - no problems.2008 Chevrolet Cobalt SS T/C
