I definitely power wash It's the first step when I take a part off before it gets sand blasted and restored. Just spray it down with simple green or a degreaser of choice, then hit it with the wand and take all the junk off. Weather happens, so thinking one of these will break from some water is a bit funny when most of the stuff we're talking about here is 30+ years old, has been used & abused throughout those 30 years, and half of them still work fine when you go to fire them up even if they aren't pretty.
