Default Steamcleaned my engine
I steamcleaned my engine. I payed most attention to the valve cover which had 4.5 years of dirt on it. Here are before and after pics. Comments are welcome.

Spray some armor all on the rubbers and plastics and you'll have a showroom shine.

Engine bay didn't look too bad to begin with... i'm curious though, did you use a steamcleaner only? Were any other products used?

I think before looks cleaner. Looks like mud was added on the dipstick after.
