Steam Clean Engine
There are several reasons why the engine exterior should be kept clean. Dirt on the outside
will enter fuel and oil filter cases and rocker housings when covers are removed, unless dirt is
removed first. A clean engine will run cooler and develop fewer hot-spots. Steam cleaning is
one of the most satisfactory methods of cleaning and engine; however, there are some
CAUTIONS
to be observed:
WARNING
Exercise care to avoid injury and damage to eyes and skin.
CAUTION
1. If a cleaning compound is used, select one that is free from acid and will not
remove paint.
2. Protect (or remove) all electrical accessories, such as voltage regulator, alternator,
and electrical wiring.
3. Seal all openings. DO NOT use a flammable solvent.
4.
DO NOT
use mineral spirits or solvents on a hot engine.
5. Remove or protect bottom panel of unit (belly pan) to protect insulation.
