Default Cleaning engine compartment

Anyone have anything they'd recommend for regular cleaning of the engine compartment?

Do I need to cover or mask anything before hosing surfaces off?

I've pressure washed mine a few times. Just steer clear of the electrical connectors and you should be fine.

I use the Costco degreaser and a pressure washer. Works just fine.
