Hello, did you ever wash your engine with a Karcher ?

Mine is very oily & dirty, which does not really help to maintain it ...

All the time. Coat with degreaser & leave to soak in. Then jet wash. Dry all the H.T. leads/coil/inside of distributor cap. Start the engine & run it till all the water has evaporated off the engine.

Wickes Brush Cleaner - brush on, and wash off. Highly recommended. I have used this on the fleet, and plan to do detail the engine bay on the Bambi, shortly.

I find Gunk to be quite ineffective & expensive. I find Jizer is very effective though at present I am using a 25 litre drum of something, cant remember the name, I bought cheap from ebay which is good.
