Cleaning my outboard engine

[Lars7]

My engine is a 35hp Lark and overall is has been kept fairly clean......but I would like to clean it up a bit more.....my question is can I safely use an engine de-greaser then pressure wash it off ?

Or do most frown on any kind of pressure washing.....I am talking about a little home version say about 1900psi.

Thanks

good ole GUNK degreaser, old parts brush, then just hose off. pressure washer not needed or advised on power head.

I have been pretty impressed with the Marine Grez-Off that I've been getting a the boat store. It's in a pump bottle so it lasts alot longer than th e aeresol cans and doesn't require much for scrubbing. Garden hose works just fine with the stuff as well.
