I agree with Simple Green, Gunk or the equivalent but Carb cleaner and brake cleaner will eat through paint, at least this has been my experience. When using Gunk I spray the engine when it is warm and use a parts cleaning brush to lossen the rough stuff. Simple Green I use on a cold engine. The pressure washer just needs to be used with common sense, use one with heat if you can. The last thing is to take a screw driver and a can of compressed air to blow out the distributor cap if you can't get it started after washing it.
