Clean Engine and under body...

Hi,

what is the best stuff to clean the engine and the underbody from power steering oil?

It was leaking and now I must clean all parts.

Thx and happy easter.

Re: Clean Engine and under body...

if i had to clean my engine and body from that, i would spray a couple cans of degreaser on a cold engine and under the body. avoid spraying exhaust, because it will burn off the oil by itself.

then drive to the nearest self serve car wash and use the degreaser and pressure rinse (hopefully get there before engine warms up completely). avoiding the ICM and plug wires.

Re: Clean Engine and under body...

Thx, but I'm afraid to make my own a engine wash. First is the electric, by the Lumina there is everywhere electric or sensors, second is the hot engine.

If I use a regular lobe I just rub the oil, but its not gone. What is about break cleaner?
