Degrease the Engine... Power Wash (or Steam if you can)... then spray it down with WD-40. Give it a couple of weeks and it will have collected every spec of anything within a hundred-yards... then start wiping it all down with old towls. It will shine like a diamond in a goats butt.

Thats what I do...
