>>Don't.
Couldn't agree more. Cleaning of engine bays causes far more damage than leaving well alone.

I say DONT as well.
I had my old Rover 820i steam cleaned once and the electrics were never the same again. (As if Rover electrics needed any help to fail)
If I ever clean under the bonnet it is when I have enough time to do it slowly and methodically using minimal water and certainly nothing that creates a strong jet of water or steam.

Well, I'll take that as a "no" then... :-)
Thanks, folks.
I've the timing belt to do, tappets to set, EGR to blank off, and a PAS union has been weeping slightly, spraying a thin coat of red around.
I'm always impressed by clean engine bays of used cars in a showroom (but less than impressed that I can't see what's been leaking), yet spraying anything watery around the alternator and sundry electrics seems mightily wrong to me...
