Is there a safe engine cleaner?
I'd like to degrease the bottom of the engine and clean some of the crud off the electrical wires. Is there a safe cleaner I can spray on the entire engine area? Thanks.

I've been useing 50% cut simple green. I'm useing the regular stuff now, but a year or two ago I was able to buy a heavy duty at A&A auto. Same price.
Not on a hot engine. Cool engine, out of the sun, leave on 1-2 minutes wash off. If your grimed up it may take a couple of cleanings.

That's what I use. I buy that stuff by the gallon case and use it for a lot of cleaning projects.

Can't you damage your paint using that stuff?

Once the engine is clean, I spray Pig Snot or Pig Spit works great on black parts.
