Not sure if this should be here or car care but heck I'm new. Any suggestions for good engine cleaner/degreaser. Just trying to clean up a little until funds become avail. for paint/hoses/chrome.
Thanks

Find a place that will steam clean it for you. Comes out a lot better than any degreaser would

Try some Simple Green. I've found that to work very well for me.

Simple Green gets my vote. Chuck

3M Makes a decent "Foaming" degreaser.
Check it out.

For the really tough stuff, use plain old EasyOff oven cleaner. Caution, this is lye and is not good for chrome or other plated surfaces...or your skin. It will also strip the paint. For the more deleicate areas, Simple Green and a brush.

HEY THANKS FOR ALL THE SUGGESTIONS. MY ENGINE COMPARTMENT IS NOT REAL BAD, BUT COULD USE A LITTLE CLEANING. ONLY 56000 ON THE CLOCK, SO MOST OF THE ORGINAL PAINT IS STILL THERE. THANKS AGAIN.

I made the mistake of using Gunk on my engine. I also used hot water. It took off a lot of the paint with the grease. It cleaned up really good though. On my new cars, I use Fantastic and warm water. My engine in the 3 year old Durango that I sold, was as clean as a new one. Don't get it on the body paint though, it might streak...
