Cleaning up power steering fluid

[Winks42]

The other day my power steering pump blew up sending fluid everywhere, on the alternator, on the hood, on the intake. I cleaned it up pretty good but there is still a little bit on the manifold that i cant get off completely and was wondering if it would be safe to run the engine and let it burn off, or is ps fluid that flammable? Other than purple power degreaser is there anything else I can try? Thanks

I would clean off what you can with purple power/mean green/simple green/whatever and then drive it to cook the rest off. Not much else you can do…

Thanks, I got as much as I could off and then let the jeep idle for a couple minutes to burn the rest off

Power steering fluid won't hurt anything.
