Default How to best clean an engine?

Hi all,

I have an OS .46 FX that needs some cleaning. It has never been crashed, but does have some grass / week residue from the prop contacting the long grass at the edge of the field over the past year. The Carb is clean (to the best of my knowledge), its just the outer casing that's dirty. The engine is on the front of a driller, so it is completely exposed (no cowl or fuselage to cover it), and I would just like to look a little better.

What is the best way to clean the exterior (ideally without having to disassemble the inner workings - I am not that comfortable)?

Thanks for your help,

John
