Intake Manifold Cleaning And Removing Carbon

[@Darksyne]

This trick works great on plastic intake manifolds!

[@themilccman7417]

Darksyne yeah worked for me! nice weight reduction too. instead of a big clunky thing i get to have a sleep slab bubbly plastic! A true race inspired mod.

[@mmmmmmannnnnnn]

Darksyne it's true, I tried it on mine and air doesn't need to pass my stupid restrictive airfilter anymore I feel a huge hp gain since the hole in my manifold sucks air straight into the engine

Good way to melt or warp your Plenum/Intake manifold tooo...

[@ltr4300]

You realize that's exactly how a forge works yeah? That is hot AF there. Aluminum castings are not really made for that. If they were, they'd use them for exhaust manifolds. Takes 1200-1400F to get carbon to move. Straight aluminum melts around 1200. The alloy used in this casting probably a bit higher, but still doesn't seem like a totally great idea. It is cool to watch though.

[@Harley365]

Yea I wanna see how much manafold leaking he has. I bet that thing is warped to hell

[@AndersonERockefeller]

Ran fine for another 100k , then it got totaled.

[@lavrentievv]

Probably a good way to smooth the inner casting marks. No need to port and polish

[@suavehouse5150]

Anderson E Rockefeller Any parts for sale?

[@raafatkamel28]

what if the mating surfaces get warp from excess of heat

[@dimmacommunication]

+Raafat Kamel i think less air or a fan point to the manifold would be good :)

[@voltag3man]

It wont, not enough heat.

[@iviaverick52]

this is a solid aluminum intake, and thick too. If fuel combustion for 100k miles doesn't warp a head, it won't warp a manifold like this after 10 minutes or so.

[@Tadesan]

Tom carbon doesn't burn hot enough to melt aluminum...

[@ramiretz]

haha yes.... cheap intakes nowdays..... iv seen a lot of them blow up after some higher milage ... especialy in BMW m57 and n57 engines (first generation m57 had casted intakes the last forever)

[@skirmich]

Why bother cleaning them? the idea of plastic is being CHEAP... Compared to Magnesium and Aluminum Manifolds you can buy a complete new Plastic Manifold and call it a day.

[@mikehigby7897]

the reason they use COMPOSITE intake manifolds these days isn't because it's cheaper. they use it because plastic can't be heated up as easily as a metal like aluminum or steel. this allows the intake charge temps to be lower when the motor is heat soaked or at operating temp. the lower the intake air temp, the more ignition timing the computer will advance.

[@skirmich]

Nah its because its cheap... Trust me I am a Mechanical Engineer ;)

[@johnferguson7235]

Dramatic and fun to watch. You might be generating enough heat to crack or warp the manifold or to alter the alloy and make it brittle. I don't think that I've ever seen a manifold with that much buildup. I think that I'll stick to using some organic solvent, some patience, and a brush. I'll try your technique to remove any left over residue.

[@DENicholsAutoBravado]

Very good thinking. :)

[@orionispm]

+John Ferguson Jeez... this will definitely warp it. How long it was? 5 minutes? I got mine soaking for 2h in decarb solution and then just used brush... Also, jet wash is brilliant, I had no problem whatsoever to decarb... but this...

[@DENicholsAutoBravado]

orionispm Fun to watch, will it hold up? If he's lucky. Will it seal? If he's lucky. Your method? Reasonable. Safe. Slower? The right way often is.

[@orionispm]

Many times doing something slower is actually faster for long term... What if it's cracked... what if it's bend? Funny bit is that he may not know that is cracked, but his turbo will definitely feel the pain...and blasting with jet wash is not that slower anyway...

[@thuss5162]

[@invasivecoyote1361]

People please check online to make sure your intake manifold does not contain magnesium before doing this. Some foreign car companies put magnesium in their intakes. Not very often though.

[@Uncle-Duncan-Shack]

Remember how nicely the VW beetle crankcases used to combust if a fuel leak was not fixed?

[@felipe34k]

theres a small hole in the manifold, in between cilinders 2 and 3! 4:27 right on the middle of it!

[@Frz45]

Felipe Kauer thats just part of the casting

[@bassman109]

No, there is a hole there that penetrates the intake, you can see it glowing.

[@harryhalfmoon]

Oh my; It's actually quite a big hole. You can see it better from 5:05 onwards.

[@darkroad6669]

Felipe Kauer that's just a hole in the casting not a hole in the intake those are ambers burning underneath

[@joshuagainey8999]

To bad the carbon was clogging the hole before it was burnt out. This is still a very convenient trick.

[@sugizotakuro]

+Anderson E Rockefeller Yes.. because of the intake manifold doesnt made to operate in that high temperature. just to be cautious of that intake surface warped or anything happens. but this sure look fun though...haha

[@crustyHO]

+Anderson E Rockefeller could always use a box fan in the direction of air flow, helps keep the flaming bits of carbon out of your face, and keeps the intake cool at the same time.

[@DENicholsAutoBravado]

Mr. Anderson. lol. Sorry. I like throwing mister in front of first names occasionally. And that just has the extra benefit of cool Matrix moments. Anyway, if I were to risk ruining an intake manifold doing this because it was so much work to clean it that if it didn't get done quickly I'd rather buy another one, I'd let it cool as slow as possible and do nothing to cool it or keep it from getting as hot. You see, that makes the metals more brittle when you do.

[@DENicholsAutoBravado]

***** Just use a good chem dip. Easy, quick, doesn't risk bending your intake. Your car may be more responsive afterwards. Is it a 4 cylinder? Most of those have more power down low with smaller intakes than stock. It may hinder performance until you're at a higher RPM.

[@DENicholsAutoBravado]

***** if you're serious about keeping it clean, add an oil catch can to your PCV system. Empty it each oil change or find you only need to empty every 10k miles. It all depends on if your engine is worn. Mostly, the PCV helps you burn gasoline your engine didn't keep in the combustion chamber. It also reduces fuel in your oil, which reduces carbonic acid, which over time erodes your engine.

+Clay Hamilton nope. even solid rocket boosters use external fuel to ignite

[@43IWD]

Yes, but while the carbon deposits are what's burning in the manifold, the combustion process is still dependent on the oxygen in the air that is being blown through. Since the fuel is being burnt by means of a gaseous oxidizer being pumped (or blown) through it, it's a hybrid.

exhaust manifold? if an intake manifold looks like that i think the rest of your engine is pretty well ronnied

[@huxleywolfkin4604]

Chayton Ruijsenaars it's a Rotary intake

[@mmdirtyworkz]

Intake as per title and as per video... And the engine is not ruined.

[@dom3827]

rotary intake? ok dont know about that. But since when there is coal in an intake lol. I would thinking about something wrong with the car. Strangely wrong.

[@mmdirtyworkz]

EGR valve, check what it does

[@CrakaJacBox]

He says within the first 10 seconds that it is a 2005 TDI intake lol.

[@detaart]

Remove the PCV from the intake and install a catch can. Done.

[@Haydenbacon306]

The Mad Max way of cleaning a manifold lol

[@mingiasi]

two things enter, crap will leave two things enter, crap will leave!

[@Texaca]

wow! that's some cool pyrotechnics 😆 Now you need to call The Chimney Sweeper, so he can use his mini chimney sweep to clean out those passages 🤘

[@TheGeekazoid]

what compressor you using? thats well impressive

[@Slash18622]

I think a Volkswagen software update will help! ;)

[@voltag3man]

more like an update to give it 40 more MPG and then get sued to ball sack for being fake as fuck on their dynos.

[@MattsShop]

Thumbs up if you clicked because of the fire clickbait.

[@Paguyuban_tepa_selira]

Matt's Shop there's no clickbait

[@NousagiMechanic]

It's not clickbait if it actually happens in the video. ;)

[@narwahlssb]

is it really click bait if it delivers what it shows?

[@brianpinkston9105]

found the attention seeker.

[@AndersonERockefeller]

The fire was from the video, no editing like most people do.

[@ramairgto72]

Really risking cracking that aluminum imo.

[@dodgeplow]

in theory. In practice it doesn't happen. common cleaning method reported on the VW forums

[@jamest.5001]

I'd say the Pcv valve was possibly letting oil in. Or the engine had lots of blow by. And put alot of 'oil smoke ' in the I take.. Where it collected on the walls.. Should have soaked it in gas .. Then after setting for a few burn it off. It did make a nice video!! I don't think the egr had too much to do with it..

[@pawel_pawcio]

Nice job! I was cleaning intake manifold in my '96 1.9 tdi before remap and it took some power, engine works better after cleaning. And what about the intake canals in cylinder head? There is a lot of this carbon too and cleaning only intake manifold won't give good results.

CONGRATULATIONS YOU'VE OPENED THE PIT TO HELL! Now we're all DOOMED!
