Hi Land rover people,
I need to clean the engine/bay of a 2004 freelander that has quite a bit of sand on it
Any Suggestions All Welcome

spray all your wiring, plugs etc with wd 50 or such like before washing, keep high pressure jet away from wiring until you rinse, spray again with water displacer before you start the engine to dry everything out, you might find the alternator belt shrieks till it dries.
