    not sure, picture came from the Hawaii News Now site. here's the caption for the image:
    Rain and runoff flooded this condominium garage, swamped vehicles, and dumped a school of tilapia into the underground parking lot.

    WTF.

    Since my truck is still new to me, i just use water. A strong stream if it. On my dirt bikes i would use straight Simple Green and a strong stream of water for the rinse. But i don't use it on my truck yet cause it will remove the protective layer on the engine and it will start to get that powder crap on it....

    At that point i would spray straight simple green on the cake (cold engine) wait 3 minutes and wash with water everywhere. Stubborn stains i would rub with a mitt or sponge .

    I wouldn't water your alternator. But when you drive in the rain, all that water goes all over your engine, so yes shoot every where. With common sense of course.

    I normally start up the truck and idle for a while to dry the engine.
