The radiator blew out and got coolant all over my engine and the underside of my hood and i wanted to power wash it off before it baked on there, ive heard that some people have done this to their 302s and get blue smoke that comes off the engine and out the exhaust. Is there a risk i may damage something?Can i power wash my 86 crown vic's 302?
Don't use too much pressure, the distrubter cap will get wet, so have to take it off and dry it or cover it up before you wash the engine. Avoid hiting the relays on the left front fender with waterCan i power wash my 86 crown vic's 302?
that's some dumb bullshit. if the engine is in fine condition you can power wash it. i did it to my 86 crown vic last week and it still runs with no prob. just try to avoid electrical n painted stuff, and don't use high pressure.
Not a problem. Just be careful of the distributor cap. If you do get water inside you will need to dry it out in order to start the car. You will know if you got water in it when it doesn't start.
depends on how much pressure you use, some powerwashers will the the paint and rip all your hoses off of your engine, also when washing your engine you want to keep it running, because the spark plugs will get water in them and if it doenst dry out by the heat of the engine running then the car wont start and you will have to take the spark plugs out and wipe them down or even replace them...
