How do you clean a jet engine?

Gas turbine engines are used to power aircraft, watercraft and power generators.

Typically they include an engine core, which has a compressor, a combustor and a turbine. The compressor pressurizes air to the combustor. In the combustor, fuel is mixed with the high pressure air and is ignited. Hot gas is created as a product of the reaction and is directed into the turbine where energy is extracted to drive the compressor and the fan.
