Hello, Salim here. In today's video, we will be testing engine cleaner from Gunk and see how good it will clean the engine.
As we can see, the engine not being cleaned before and it has so much dust and road grime on it.
I'm gonna be using the foam version in this video.
They have three types of spray cans depending on the condition of the engine you will be cleaning.
In my case, it's just the dust and road grime, no leaking oil or burned oil on any surface.
Make sure before doing any engine wash that you left the engine over the night without starting,
so you have a cold surface.
Alright, before doing anything, let's disconnect the battery terminal
so we don't have any problem in case if any wire harness leaking water.
Okay, let's use Gunk's engine cleaner foam type.
Don't forget to shake the can well before using.
The instruction is very easy.
Spray it on a cold engine and leave it for 10 to 15 minutes and then rinse it with water.
I had better result with 15 minutes before,
so I will leave it for 15 minutes again and then pressure wash it.
You don't need to use pressure washer, just a garden hose will be good for rinsing.
I still feel I have some left in the can, so I'm gonna use it under the hood.
Now the can is empty, I could cover the whole engine bay and under the hood.
Now we're gonna give it 15 minutes and then pressure wash it.
Now we're gonna give the engine bay some time to dry,
because when it's wet, it looks all shiny and clean, but when it's dry, it will show the dirt.
Alright, now the engine is dry, looks like I used plastic restorer on the plastics,
but I haven't used anything, the plastic on the engine looks like new and not faded color.
The hood, not so good.
I think it got dry faster than the engine, and the reason I believe,
it's like a vertical surface and it didn't let the cleaner stay on the surface and do its job.
But overall, the engine looks great now, and here's how it was before and here's how it looks now.
It's a big difference without using brush.
The video is not sponsored and I bought the product with my own money.
I have used this product before and had good result with it.
I thought it was a great idea to share with you guys,
since some of you been asking me what kind of engine degreaser I'm using.
If you're interested in this product, let me know which one I test in the next video.
Alright, that's it for this video, hope you guys found the video useful and learned something new.
If it was, like and subscribe if you haven't already, and I will see you in the next one.
Bye for now.
