Engine Cleaning

Hey guys and girls! not ure if i am putting this in the correct section, i browsed around and this is the only placee it looked like it would fit in.

ENGINE CLEANING!

what is the best way to clean my LCR engine? i want to doit myself as i always want to try to do everything myself and i trust my own work... i think

I had a focus before the leon and just usse to put 2 plastic bags over the electrics and hose the beast down, degrease it, let it settle for 5-10 mins then hose the beast back down.

As the LCR engine is way different to the focus is there anything i need to do/be carefull off?

Thanks
