Raw Fuel smell in Cab

[Rust1buckin]

I had a fuel line come off while driving down highway today.. Fuel completely saturated the engine bay.I fixed the line which somehow disconnected from the engine mounted fuel filter.. i would greatly appreciate any advise on how to clean the fuel out of the engine area and get rid of the smell in the cab..Thanks in advance

Brake Kleen and a pressure washer lol. That's what I did when that happened....

take it to a carwash, unless you have your own power washer that you can add soap too, and wash the crap out of the engine bay. dont be afraid to get everything wet, it wont hurt it

As they have advised. Lots of water and cleaning agents.

the only thing i don't like about Brake Kleen is if its left on any rubber or plastic is has the chance of causing some problems

Yeah it's possible for sure. I went at the engine after with the power washer for a good 5 or so minutes...
