LOL but you have to explain "hit it with the hose"

The best practice would be to wrap all exposed wires with tape - and use a LIGHT spray hose..

my IT guy really likes RE-explaining the dynamics of

Electronics and WATER to me.

Did you really H.P. spray the motor then try start it??

IF you are going to spray the engine comp. with water:
A. To be 100% safe-disconnect the battery.
B. As mentioned cover any electronics and wires.
C. Let everything DRY thoroughly before reconnecting battery OR starting the car.
