Homemade engine cleaner

I want to share this with other members. I was short on cash last weekend and needed to degrease the engine and under hood area. Here is what I used and it works great!!!! In a 32 oz spray bottle, fill half way with ammonia, dump in some dish washing soap (when your wife is not watching ) go ahead dump a bunch in. top off with a little bit of water.

Now spray away. the grease and grime just melts away. rinse with garden hose.

In the spring I am going to try this on my radiator.
