Help!! Washed My Engine

[william_jeff]

people have this thing thinking that it is necessary to cover electrical components, when it isnt necessary. as long as the car is turned on when you are cleaning the engine and you dont sit there and run the water on the electrical components constantly, you will be fine. i have cleaned my mothers volvo, accord, my brothers accord, my integra and my trucks engine bay and have never covered any electrical components and the only problem i have is because of the distributor cap. the one on my truck doesnt seal all the way allowing moisture to seep in. so the only thing i had to do was to take off the cap, wipe out the inside, and it started right back up.

Not necessary, but helpful.
