    OTC Degreaser

    What is the best OTC degreaser? I am ready to do my engine and want to know what to use.

    Jenn, I cleaned my motor today with the orange stuff from Wally World. Works good but I do it a couple times a year. Gunk foam has worked for me in the past also. Be sure to follow the directions on the can and those little plastic bags from the store work good to cover stuff you dont want to get wet.

    Try Purple Power, it's cheap and strong.

    Simple Green makes an automotive version of their cleaner and it works great and is very cheap.

    Gunk works REALLY well at cleaning under the hood.

    Simple green and purple power are great OTC degreasers. But, be careful as they are fairly powerful and if not used properly can etch aluminum and chrome.

    Zep Citrus Degreaser is pretty much the best OTC cleaner I have found after going through Purple Power and a bunch of others. It is cheap too at less than $10 per gallon and is dilutable.

    Can you find it at Wally World or Home Depot?
