running without fan/alternator for <10sec

I need to power wash the top of the engine, I plan to remove the
fan/alternator and drive the car in the self serve car wash. The
actual drive time without the fan/alternator will be less than
10 seconds. Is this a bad plan? Can I dammage something doing
this? The car is a stock 72E with stock MFI and stock ignition.

Thanks,
Francois

No problem at all. It's actually a good idea because then you can really get to all those places and clean thoroughly.

Must be a steep uphill, otherwise I would have pushed my car
