Essential Safety Precautions
Working around the engine bay requires constant safety awareness. Always wait for the engine to cool down completely before you begin, and remain fully attentive and focused throughout the process. It is vital to wear protective gloves and safety glasses to protect yourself from hot engine oil, fuel vapors, and sharp plastic components.
