    Purple Power is where is it at! That's what I recommend for greasy cleaning too. I use full strength, though; and I also tried that Walmart bottle too, but had to upgrade to the $2 Home Depot version because the Purple Power would cut out the grease of the pumping mechanism of the bottle and it would seize up; on the Walmart bottle, the return spring is not strong enough to reset the trigger with a grease cutter as lubrication (extra frustrating).

    • @Patrick.Weightman
      @Patrick.Weightman 2 года назад +2

      Be careful with purple power. It's great stuff but if it's too strong it'll bubble your paint in a hurry. Even they recommend to keep it away from automotives.

    Be careful with purple power. It's great stuff but if it's too strong it'll bubble your paint in a hurry. It also isn't too friendly to aluminum and tends to varnish it, especially anodizing

    No. My engine is dead now. Water had gotten into my spark plugs. Thanks to Scott Kilmer advice I saved my car. Had to replace spark plugs after spraying a whole can of WD-40 and letting it sit over night.

    • @PhoRunner
      @PhoRunner  3 года назад +1

      It’s an off road vehicle so it’ll see water. Don’t force any water into spots and you’ll be fine. Take it for a drive to warm it up. But do so at your own risk. I do it on all my vehicles and never had issues

    Would you recommend this if there is a good amount of leaked oil build up on the exhaust manifold? Definitely want to clean my 02 4Runner engine bay up a bit, but curious if the leaked oil from gasket valves would be an issue!

    • @PhoRunner
      @PhoRunner  3 года назад +1

      It’ll be fine. That oil will just burn when it leaks on the exhaust. Just don’t spray directly in the valve cover but it’s probably a small leak and won’t be an issue

    I really like your videos, except this one. I would never do this to my 2002 4runner that I bought new in late 2001. Do I care if my engine looks nice? No. Would cleaning it make it function better? No. Could it screw things up? Yes.
    Having said that, I don't work on the truck myself, and even though it's a 4WD I almost never go off road.

    • @PhoRunner
      @PhoRunner  4 года назад +2

      No worries, that’s why I gave a lot of precautions. I just don’t personally take them since the 4runner lives in the wild usually.

    yeah, hosing down the engine bay? no thanks. at least run the engine to let it dry out. don't let the plastic & rubber get UV damage.
