What Are the Consequences of Washing an Engine with a Water Gun?

[EvaLynn]

After washing the engine with a water gun, short circuits may occur. Dust in the engine compartment: If the engine compartment has not been cleaned for a long time and is covered with dust, it will affect the heat dissipation of the engine and related components. Poor heat dissipation can lead to excessively high temperatures in the engine compartment. On one hand, this affects the engine's performance and lifespan, and on the other hand, it accelerates the aging of internal components such as wiring harnesses, posing safety hazards. Tools needed for cleaning: Cleaning agent, brush (or an old toothbrush), towel, and spray bottle. It is well known that the main sources of pollution in a car's engine compartment are dust and mud. If car owners want to clean the engine compartment themselves, they can prepare engine cleaner, a brush (or an old toothbrush), a towel, and a spray bottle. These tools are generally sufficient.
