Man, I'd been avoiding cleaning my engine bay, but after 5 years and 67k miles it was getting kinda gross in there. I was reluctant to pop the hood in public for the shame. Years ago I really discolored the aluminum block on a car by using simple green on it and I was concerned about getting water in the wrong place and causing an issue or short. My brake fluid reservoir was so gross you couldn't tell if there was fluid in it or not.
Well after forgetting to put the oil fill cap back on and driving for a while, that kind of forced the issue. Oil everywhere on the passenger side of the engine bay
Picked up some Zep heavy duty citrus degreaser, wet down the obvious stuff (let it sit for 1 min), then followed up with a soapy sponge on the easily accessible stuff, and then rised with a couple of buckets of water and dried with a short drive.
Man it looks so much better now. I should have done this years ago.
