I wanna clean out the engine bay but I don;t wanna mess anything up that shouldn't get wet.

What kind of cleaner should i use and what should I wrap up? I was planning on usaing a plastic bag and taping it down around things like air cleaner, alt, but what else?

Here's some pics of my engine bay to help me out.

make sure to cover the distrubitor, and dont do it when the engine is hot cos the cooler water will be a bad thing, let the engine cool off, use a standard good degreaser, large brush for big areas, old toothbrush for smaller areas, and use warm water

cover the coils, if you have an intake cover that...and when you spray the water on make sure the car is on and running...this way everything will dry quicker and wont hurt anything...

You sure on leaving it on? I would expect to leave it off so nothing does get cracked.
