Suggestions: Invest in a cheap electric power washer and reduce the time going to the car wash. Maybe spritz some fogging oil over the internal parts of the engine after washing. Don't use chlorinated brake cleaner if it might come in contact with internal seals; I saw you use non-chlorinated - good choice.

Bro how on earth you gonna sit engine heads down on raw concrete?!

Bruh, I can't stress how LITTLE that matters! As long as u don't drag it on the ground or put weight on top of it, it's FINE!!🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️

To clean anything really dirty the best method is rinse-wash-rinse. The pressure washer is a terrific tool and should be used first, as it will remove water-soluble dirt and clean a lot of non-water-soluble dirt (oils, grease) using micro-abrasion (which is safe on metals and plastics, at least if they are thick enough to withstand the water blast which engines are). Then you can use surfactants / degreasers / chemical cleaners to remove the remaining oil and grime. Soaking works a lot better after the pre-rinse. Then you can come back with the pressure washer and remove the cleaners and dissolved dirt and whatever it has loosened up. Much more efficient and effective. Rinse-wash-rinse!

What that spray stuff using here

Soon as you spray the blech white tire cleaner it turns brown and the grease is running off. Cleans the dry brown residue thats left. I have used it carbs too.

Did you clean the valley and tops of pistons with motor together?

I used a power washer with water and purple power cleaner worked pretty well.

Your cleaning the valves and mating surfaces with a wire brush, leaving heads on bare concrete and then pressure washing heads like flash rust doesn’t exist. You do understand the average person will destroy his car watch this.

aluminum don't rust furthermore the brush is softer then the metal and the bristles will break off before causing any damage.

I put a pint of brake fluid in a crankcase with 5.5 quarts new motor oil. Do you think that will do anything bad for 5,000 miles?

What did you do to get the water out of the powerwashed parts? I'm assuming we don't air dry lol

Just use a Parts Washer. No mess to clean up and it can be environmentally friendly, if using a water base cleaner.

Yu can use diesel instead it cuts the grease and dirt like a pro

Vinegar works great

You should try oven cleaner spray can and let it sit for 5 minute then hit with a pressure washer comes of easy as pie

Nothing cleans and cuts through built up engine oil and sludge like a good ol’ fashioned soaking in gasoline in a plastic tub.

If you could spend $200 and buy a 30litre sonic cleaner and 3 gal of Awesome your parts come out amazing while you are doing something else

And all those chemicals go into the ground, environment, etc. But who cares, your crappy parts are clean.
