Please advise how to wash my Honda Fit GP6 hybrid car engine at home.

Can I use degreasers and which parts are sensitive to water/moisture?

The computer is very greasy and dirty I have always covered it before washing but it’s too dirty.

Hi,

Here is a pretty good video that walks you through how to do it. Keep in mind you do not need to hose it down if you are concerned about it.

He addresses this in the video but if in doubt, just wipe it down with a wet wipe that he shows in the video. There is nothing wrong with using some spray cleaner, a brush, and then just wipe it off. This is much more controlled then just spraying down with a hose.
