Get a can of engine degreaser & wash down the engine carefully trying to stay away from electrical components. When clean start it up & run it and you should find the leaks easily
If the stretcher is edge on to the down wash, very little effect, if at right angles it will push it hard like a sail.
just as a body wash, I get a wet towel and put some on it and wash myself down with it.
they wear down and wash out land:)
No, wash them by hand, and then air dry. Anything with feathers, I would not recommend machine-washing or drying...
It may not be a good idea to machine wash a down bedspread. Consider getting it cleaned professionally at your dry cleaners.
Wash it and hang it upside down until it dries.
At least once a week.

Washing a Down ComforterNothing - I have a Pacific Coast down comforter and I wash it at least once every 2-3 months. At first I was afraid to wash it, but after I finally did everything was fine. I would just wash it on the gentle cycle and make sure you dry it really good, but not on high heat. If it doesn't get all the way dry the feathers will clump together inside the boxes. I'm sure over time its not great to wash them over and over again, it probably wears them out faster, but once and a while its ok.Washing is ok. Do not dry clean. Down industry groups recommend washing down comforters.
