engine bay before and and after

[felixx]

Did you take your engine cover off?.I'm always frightened of messing things up.The last time I did my engine bay,I taped all the electrical connectors up because I was sure I was going to blow something.Took me the best part of a day to do,then the same to take it all off again!!!!.It was weeks before my fingers recovered. FELIXX.(Looks nice by the way).

If you do want to power wash the engine whats the best way to do it, ie what precautions must be taken on a diesel engine, fancy giving my snow foam a bash on it.

Thanks
