whatever you do, dont use a high pressure hose. heck even using a regular garden hose with a "jet" spray attachment can do some damage in there.

last time i cleaned the engine on my truck (that get's dirty from 4 wheeling), i used 2 cans of engine cleaning spray.

first can was used to loosenn things. then i remove the spray gun from the hose and just let the water out of hose wash out the gunk.

then second can was used to finalize the cleaning.
