engine wash
 

my SiR needs an engine wash..any place you guys recommend? dont mind the cost just want the job done nicely

do it yourself. buy some simple green and tire foam.

Yea, DIY. Take it to the coin op on O'Conner Dr (Vic Park, S of Eglinton). It's washes has an "engine wash" function.

dans detailing...look @ the affiliate's section

woodbine toyota :) best job and price and they dont put that shiny **** all over ur hoses that attracts dust the second u drive off the lot

DIY. Take it to a coin wash, take a plastic bag and cover your battery, intake and battery. Spray it down with some degreaser, let it sit for a couple of mins, scrub your bad areas and then wash it down. You could use some dressing afterwards if you want it all pretty and shiny (y)

Dont waste ur money with the engine wash formula @ coin washes, isnt strong enough.

dont forget to cover ur alternator as well, and if u wanna be extra careful cover your dizzy aswell

you don't necessary have to cover the battery n don't concentrate on any connectors/spark plug wires. n after you shampoo ur engine you should use an air gun to blow off all the excess water.

agreed. DIY. I just did mine today. I used simple green and my hose, not even a pressure washer.

I do mine at least once a year, sometimes twice. Make sure you cover your alternator with a bag. If you have an aftermarket intake, I'd cover that up with a bag as well.

If go somewhere to do it, they'll charge anywhere between $20 -$50 to do it. A bottle of simple green cost less than $10 dollars. You probably won't even find a place that charges $20 dollars, it'll probably be more than that. I remember when I worked at crappy tire, we charged $45 dollars to wash the engine bay, lmao. Suckers would actually pay that price too. It takes like 5 mins to do.

Here are some quick pics I just took.
