What is the best way to clean the engine compartment/engine. I know to avoid the BOSCH fuel pressure "switch" on the pass. side fuel rail which says "do not get wet"(WTF, who was the brillant mind behind that). But what is the approved way to clean it all without a moisture problem with any of the 10,000 electrical connections under the hood. Thanks in advance.

GUNK and low pressure water .... Avoid electrical componets ...I blow off everything with a compressor normally myself ....


The Bosch EDU is sealed ... Instructions state no HIGH pressure spray ...


Keeping up on the task as in not letting it go far in between cleanings helps ....
