Default Engine bay cleaning

Ok, so now that I will be installing a new Mishimoto radiator, the task of cleaning all the coolant that spayed onto the engine block and everywhere else is at hand.

I have used GUNK engine cleaner in the past, and had weeks of oils smell coming off of my hot engines. Trying to avoid that, I thought I was ask everyone what they would use in a case like this?

The coolant sprayed just about everywhere. I was thinking some simple green in water and a small brush to all parts and a quick rinse with the hose?

Though I answered this question today thought I was loosing my mind. you posted it twice


Purple power mixed 50/50 . You can get it at Advanced auto. I stay away from degreasers as they tend to stain. With the PP you spray it on and rinse it off.

This is definitely the way to do it. Mine came out spotless!

Just make sure to polish up any polished parts after doing it.
