At the dealer we use Spray 9 its a degreaser, and we use a engine cleaning gun to basicly pressure wash it.

USe a good degreaser, let it sit of a few hose it off after. Might need a brush for some of the hard to remove grease. Blow it dry with an air hose after your all done.
Actually, even with the spark plug cover, there is a tendancy for water to seep down into the spark plugs.... Just don't make a point of spraying around the plug wire cover really hard... I had that happen to mine once...

No big deal if it happens, just pulled the plugs and let it dry out....

I washed mine like 2 weeks ago, and it ran after I washed it to let all the water evaporate, then I turned it off, then tried to go somewhere like 20 minutes later and the car wouldnt start, it just kept making the turn over noise, then my battery died, then it'd start and when I pushed the throttle it died. I think it was excessive water in the alternator, two hours later it started up just fine so at the least try not to drown the thing.

Definitely nice for only 4g's... I'm not a hb person myself (except the new SI :drool: ) but if I saw that deal and I had the money I'd pick it up for a few kicks!
