Agree re the smell of Gunk,-like Jeyes Fluid. Some use Jenolite. However, half a gallon of paraffin and stiff brush will soften all the oily gunge. Then a bucket of scalding hot water with a good dollop of dishwasher fluid. Use rubber gloves and be quick-it's quite caustic which aluminium doesn't like. Finish off with hot water and washing up liquid. Every time you wash the car thereafter, wipe the engine and underbonnet area down with a damp sponge. Never needs the full treatment after that. Davek.
Whats the point - its all under the bonnet anyway? And gets covered in oil and general grime too.
perhaps one likes to use a PSA lump as a salon table...
