@aaronwiltonjones: Can you wash an engine with water, let alone a pressure washer? Now, this is a question I always get. The short answer is yes, but before you go out and start blasting water at your engine, there are three important things you need to know. Firstly, you need to make sure that the engine is completely cool before you start washing it with water. If you attempt to clean a hot engine, the rapid cooling caused by the water can cause damage to the engine's components. Secondly, Never use a pressure washer over 2000 psi as this is more likely to damage the electrical components, you also want to have a wide fan nozzle tip this spreads out the flow of water and minimizes the chance of damage. Thirdly, keep the water flow moving and never let it sit in one place for too long. Some important areas to avoid when using the pressure washer are the alternator and the air intake. It’s important to note that car engines are water-resistant and can withstand a lot. However, they are not waterproof, and they need air for combustion. So if water does get inside the engine, then it might cause damage. I've been detailing engines with a pressure washer for many years and have never had any issues. Also, I’ve just released a new free workshop where I teach how to start and grow a profitable car detailing business from nothing, and the link is in my bio. #autodetailing #carcleaning #cardetail #cardetailing #CleanTok #trending #cleaningtiktok
