DH757

I'm thinking of giving the engine a good degreasing and cleaning.

However is it legal to do the cleaning on the car port? I live in California if law allows it.

If not, where could I go clean it?

What engine components should I cover up so that they don't get wet?

you can clean it so long as there are no hazardous materials like oil, antifreeze, or any other toxic fluid that will be washed off. if its normal stuff like dirt, brake dust, pebbles, etc then you are fine.

I thought I answered a question like this a while ago:

In theory, no

No hazardous material should ever touch the ground in California.

Do people do it anyways? yeah, pretty much

I wasn't able to find the topic afterwards. So I did a sorry about that.
Thanks for that!

I'm just doing this to remove the dirt and grime from the engine.

Lol. It's no biggie. NY and CA are like twins, we both have strict environmental rules now that I think about it.
