cleaning dust/dirt off of motor

[mountainboy]

Anyone have any suggestions? I took my boat on a long dusty road to get to a great fishing hole and now the motor is really dirty. A friend says to wash it with the hose, but I'm not so sure...Thanks, MB

The hose washing shouldnt cause any problems. No high pressure wash though.

Yeah that spraycan degreaser seems to work better on boat motors than cars. I try to not spray the ignition components much though.
