[DML] Re: Cleaning a Delorean Engine

["Harold McElraft" <hmcelraft@xxxxxxx>]

I think the best advice is - don't do water, especially under 
pressure and do not use air pressure. You would be surprised at what 
you can ruin. The pressure will push crud into areas that can cause 
serious damage - bearings, seals, electrical connections, etc. Wipe 
areas with a rag, use brake clean on surface areas or WD-40 (be sure 
engine is cool).
