Do you believe in washing engines, and do you wash yourself?

I spray a diesel and klin solution all around the engine with a spray can..then close the bonnet and allow to sit for around 20 minutes for the solution to degrease the engine...

Then i use a rag soaked in fuel to wipe parts of the engine I can reach...

Then I finally use the spray can to spray a fine mist of clean diesel all over the engine ...gives it an immense shine...


I saw the diesel and klin trick at a car wash in Owerri years ago..the niggas also used diluted battery acid to wash car engine..they used sticks from one plant I don't know to reach the acid to all corners of the engine and gearbox blocks and gear blocks.

Then they use high pressure hot water to flush..they then put diesel in their mouths and spray it all over the car engine for immense shine..Engines looked brand new thereafter..

I picked up the diesel and klin trick, as well as the diesel shining stuff, except say me na hand spray can I dey use to spray the diesel, not my mouth..As for the acid and high pressure water spray, I leave that one for them..

I no gree learn that one because I no get energy for stories that touch..before I use acid or hot water spray go touch where I go begin find rewire, or worse still, begin find engine or gearbox to buy...Devil no fit use me.

I had a hard laugh at the diesel mouth spray grin.
Personally, I avoid acid on engines. It will affect aluminum engines particularly. I still don't have mind for diesel and and klin for shine. Some people use ATF too. I just use engine protectant spray. When I didn't have engine protectant, I left it like that.

Does the diesel mixture attract dust?

No, it doesn't Sir,

As for acid, I don't think I will ever have the stomach for its application on engines..I might try that ATF you talked about tho.

Don't listen to OP. Go to jiji,buy steam wash portable tokunbo.like 20k. Use like 1 sachet or two satchet of pure water,wash it out at high steam speed. Before that ,take an empty bottle of spray starch plastic, pour some detergent inside,add water,use shoe brush and apply to the engine bay,wash out the dirt by spraying the bottle and using the brush,flush out all,and then use steam wash. E go be like brand new or sorry,tokunbo
