Your edit probably covers more than I could tell you. I use 409 or purple power, nothing special. I did mean rinse with water, just dry everything up as best you can and keep the water away from the alternator, battery and air filter. And you could use power tools. Power tools make everything more fun. For example a pump could be used to suck out the wells as you rinsed with degreaser / water. Sort of like getting your teeth cleaned at the dentist.
