Engine bay clean

[Kilrathal]

Hey all,

Just wondering what everyone uses to clean their engine bay.

i.e degrease and give it a shine again.
The previous owner of mine didn't like the idea of a clean engine bay apparently. So i'm looking to fix that.

Halfords engine cleaner and a tooth brush.

Yeah heard about the gunk stuff on a youtube video.

Do i really need to bag off the intercooler? As that needs cleaning also.

Halfords sell it so you can use that 15% discount on it :) If you want to clean the i/c just be careful round it and stay well away from the fins

haha gotta use that Halfords discount when i can. already saved me £30.

Will probably bag the i/c off as you suggested and clean it with a light brushing to remove dirty and air.
