Re: Was van n Polo engine?
nou hoekom wil jy n beetle was ?
GleenGreen in n spuit kannetjie - vir die taai of vuil kolle. Los die stap as dit net stof is.
Koel engine, laat dit "idle".
Gardena spuit stuk op n tuinslang en spuit die lot af. Druk is net hoog genoeg om die stof af te spuit, maar nie naby die hoe druk wat n spuitstelsel maak nie.
Gaan ry DADELIK n paar kilometer dat die hitte al daai water verdamp - VOOR dit kans kry om erens in te trek.
Ek het my engins al n paar keer so skoon gespuit.

I had a Polo & Golf 4, engine bays are very similar, that plastic cover is removable... I cleaned the engine with engine cleaner and my Karcher HP water gun... never gave me a any trouble!

Spray the engine with Q20 or something like it. Then take a rag and wipe off the excess. You will think it came from a valet.....

Re: Was van n Polo engine?
Wees baie versigtig vir die Coil pack hulle laaik niks van water nie!!
As jy hom klaar gewas het en hy wil nie staart nie los hom vir 'n dag of wat om uit te droog of koop 'n nuwe C/Pack.
Myne is nou wel 'n 2001 maar ek glo jou sal die selfde wees.
My motor bly nou maar vuil tensy die stealers hom wil was!

Re: Was van n Polo engine?
Die 9N polo het nie 'n groot probleem met water nie, dit is die ou polo wat vrek van 'n bietjie nattigheid. Probeer net om nie die coilpack direk met 'n pressure washer te spuit nie. Sorg ook dat die enjin afgekoel is voor jy hom natspuit dit is die skielikke afkoel wat die coilpack laat kraak.
Ek gebruik gewoonlik engine degreaser soos prepsol wat ek met 'n verfkwas aansmeer en dan 'n rukkie laat staan voor ek dit afspuit

Jy kan die enjin maar spuit met water; ek vermy net die 'electrics' daar teen die firewall. Myne is 'n 2007, geen issues sover...

my "high pressure cleaner" is ver weg gebere, hy het my baie geld gekos, ons verf n water-base engine cleaner met n kwassie aan en spoel dit met met lae waterdruk af.

Re: Was van n Polo engine?
I've never been a big one for washing engines ...... but whenever I do it I also just use a water based engine cleaner (on a cold motor) and spray it on with a spray bottle that connects to the compressor hose, leave it soak for about ½ an hour and rinse it off. The biggest issue that I have with engine cleaning is that it promotes corrosion if it's not properly rinsed off. To help overcome this I always follow up (once it's all dry) with a spray application of paraffin (mostly with a tiny bit of oil added) so that there is a light oily film left behind. I never use a h/p cleaner on my vehicles (paid the school fees) except for the rims and undercarriage.
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
