Steve, I would be really careful around the firewall area on the hybrid. I'm not a master on the hybrid engine nor do I know a whole lot about them... however there is a lot of hybrid components (electrical stuff) close to the firewall area. I sprayed that area with extreme caution not knowing what the effect of water from a pressure washer would do. I would have like to have taken more time to study the engine... but time did not permit.


I do what I do, when I can do it...
