Had the Triton for 8 years and never had the engine cleaned. My local car wash offers this service and I assume they pressure wash it with water. Is this likely to cause any electrical problems?

This is Thailand! Image vs substance. Thais like to wash the engine, its all about image. But water gets into the electrics and its hard to dry them out so it will start. More important is that the INSIDE of the engine is clean with new filter and quality oil. Meanwhile, the Dynamo shops (Alternator to us) are doing a roaring trade replacing Alternators that got wet inside.

A spray can of engine degreaser and a hose with running water. Shroud the electrics with plastic bags. Use a stiff brush to help the degreaser.
