OK, I have a 2 1/2 gpm,2800psi and 6hp commercial set up BUT most of the time I can get the engine hot and then hit it with some purple power and get it off with a Garden Hose with a good nozzle. I do this cause i hate getting out the pressure washer and even more I hate starting it. (my shoulder hurts)
I've cleaned some pretty nasty engines with a good garden nozzle but then maybe I have a little higher water pressure than some.
Anyone THAT concerned about washing one engine can put down a piece of plastic, wash engine then fold it up and dispose of it at the landfill. At least we don't pull a car across the ditch and let the oil drain out in a ditch as we did 50 plus years ago.
I'll also agree to the car wash thing but again, my garden hose has more pressure than some of them!
