There's been a few threads about Simple Green. Mike_sho made a thread a while back showing the before and after results of using it. His engine looked pretty damn good to begin with so you really couldn't see the results. Well today I decided to clean up the engine bay on my 01 Galant. As you can see from the pictures, it needed cleaning long time ago.
I sprayed and wiped down certain areas with a towel that was heavily coated with grease and dirt to loosen it up and also parts I didn't want to pressure wash. Then I sprayed everything down again and let it sit/drove to the car wash(5 minutes away)and rinsed everything down. Considering my car was pretty dirty. I used Simple Green without diluting it. It says on the bottle you can also dilute 1:10. I picked up a pretty good size bottle at Target for around 4 bucks and it took about 20-30 minutes to do all this. I remember taking my Accord to a place for them to clean my engine bay. They charged me 40 bucks to do what I just did today for 4 bucks.
