    Get you some spray 9 and go to the car wash leave the car running pop the hood and SOKE the bay down (not the air filter) then rinse her down. Just make sure you don't spray the airfilter and leave the motor running.

    Be careful about power washing the spark plug area too, seals can get broken and be a bitch.

    I was about to ask the same question, what about the alternator, can you spray it?
