With all the recent posts about that engine cleaning stuff from halfords i thought i would give it a go. All i can say is wow, I have never seen my engine so clean it looks brand new. Still got some left so I will save that for next time.
Apologies I have no pics of it before and after.

Only one question though, how long does it last for?.

Usually till it rains

Mine is still looking pretty clean, just soime bits of surface dirt starting to appear, and I havent done mine for months, and do a fair bit of mileage too

Is it essential to use a jetwash or will just a hose do?

IWantaScoobyNow

hose should do fine, i just used the gun i use in for watering the plants in the garden. you only need to rinse it off and i dont know about you but i dont like spraying my engine too much.

I didnt use the halfords one, I used the Autoglym Engine Cleaner, similar price tho

Then used the Autoglym Vinyl & Rubber Spray, spray it liberally all over plastic bits etc, leave for 3 or 4 minutes, then wipe off excess to a shine you can see your face in
