:stupid: I've got a local farmer who will let my use his steam cleaner on my engine bay if i want, but I'm not sure...will the heat or water harm any of my parts? I know to keep away from the distributor and computer stuff.

Teh heat and presure can get into the electrical connections and can corode them over time.

So what is the best way to clean 13 years of crap from an engine bay?

A light degreaser and no more presure than you get out of your hose. I use the castrol degreaser in the squirt bottle it works fantasticly and there is more in the bottle than in the aresol cans.

i took all my wiring apart. my engine was the only one left and the tranny. i pressure cleaned my engine bay. no telectirall connectors or shit. but be sure to block off all the intake ports and valve breather hole if u pressure clean ur bay like i did. but shit yo, i need some pics of my car. i can even read my barcode on the tranny, never knew i had one. :)
