    Gasoline and compressed air works great. Gasoline has detergents in it which breaks down grease and oil, and it also leaves a rust inhibiting film after it evaporates off. Just don’t use it on hot/warm engines.

    Gunk isn’t anything as good as it used to be . The original brush on gunk was a dark brown colour and when It came into contact with water , it would turn viscous . That stuff worked amazingly well . The new stuff is a translucent red colour and it doesn’t work nearly as well as the old stuff . The new stuff is basically glorified power washer soap

    Simple green or the jungle jake from the local farm and barn seem to be the best thing for a quick soak and rinse type engine cleaning in my experience. Then I just spray anything metal down with a bit of spray lube along with hitting any pulleys with it. Also try not to hose down the alternator and starter too much, they don't ever seem to appreciate it.

    I've attempted to clean up greasy engine bays with this stuff before and it was basically useless. If you spray it on, let it sit, and rinse it off like this, it doesn't clean anything that the hose alone wouldn't. If you pressure wash it off, same deal, no better than just pressure washing in the first place. Simple green is far better, and if you want something that cuts oil and grease fast, mineral spirits does the trick.

    Don’t clean your engine this way, and especially don’t use water. Or any liquid unless it’s oil. ESPECIALLY if its an old motor. Just look at it like this, if you clean all that gunk off by spraying chemicals on then spraying it with water, When it drys, all of your hoses and rubber gaskets that came in contact with the water and degreaser will start to crack. All of your sensors will start to malfunction and the you will have created a big headache of a problem. ESPECIALLY Purple power.
