<div dir="auto">I'd avoid spraying anything directly that has more than three wires going into it. Other than that, it's all made to be outdoors in the weather, so it can handle a little rain. Just don't force any water where it shouldn't go.</div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Fri, Jun 10, 2022, 13:21 Bob Spidell <<a href="mailto:bspidell@comcast.net">bspidell@comcast.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">I have a '96 Ranger that will be due for a CA smog check in a couple <br>
months. I've been using it for farm duties and transport to hay baling <br>
assignments, and the engine compartment's gotten a good cake of dust. <br>
Besides the 'usual' prep--injector cleaner, clean the (K&N) air filter, <br>
fresh gas and oil, etc.--I'm thinking of pressure washing the engine <br>
because, well, because it looks like crap. I know appearances don't <br>
count--OBDII and tailpipe emissions only--but I need to wash my riding <br>
lawnmower and I'll have the pressure hooked-up anyway ...<br>
<br>
So, anyone had an issue pressure washing a new(ish) vehicle with ECU, <br>
CoP, etc.? I don't think twice about pressure washing my old cars and <br>
tractors, except for maybe losing some paint, and if they won't start I <br>
know it's a matter of getting the electricals dried out, but a newer <br>
vehicle with their 'delicate' electronics?<br>
<br>
TIA,<br>
