| After a muddy ride and it's time to clean the buggy up, I lift the hood, and the bed and blast all the mud in sight. Then hand wash every thing I can reach. Then rinse, dry as best I can, then spray EVERYTHING with WD-40. Question is, do any of you guys take the seats out and the motor cover off and blast that area also? Thanks for your time and any help. | |

| dont use high pressure on the motor. i get what needs done and then just disconnect and wash with the hose. thats also when i like to "flood" the inside of the skidplates and get all that out. | |

| Just the regular hose on the Motor. And I dont use WD-40. Learned my lesson on that from my Jeep days. Eventually gets gunky and nasty and gets all over you when you have to work on it.

| I pressure was everything - I have a pressure washer that does not go over 1800 psi, I have different nozzles that i use from 15 degrees to 65 degrees that I use based on what I'm washing. When I'm done I spray the under side of everything with Pam cooking spray - The mud comes off easy. This is what I do and it works for me ! | |

| Pressure wash all of it, wd-40 all of it. Your good as long as you cover your air filter box and keep it dry.
