Actually.

Go to a local dealership, drive around back. Tell the dudes in the prep department that your trying to degrease your motor. Have them ask their boss if its ok to give you, or sell you some Mean Green.

It's not watered down simple green bullshit, it's straight up concentrated. Spray that up there and pressure wash off. I'll put money that it gets it clean.

The whole wiretucking thing is over-rated anyways, but this will make the motor 'cleaner'.
