@@RipPhillips no, but it will work equally. I just finished a chevy impala 3.6 DI.. the stuff works. I have been getting them in about 150k mi. W/ no records of cleaning. I like this because the engine is running while dispensing. It wont blow off big chunks like doing a soak. If its bad i would do 1 of these before the oil change 2 or 3 times, then move to a full GDI soak if you want. The soak will drop bigger chunks. So I'm doing these stp cans most the time till someone gets caught up. Last time i did a crc GDI soak on a really sludged 150mi hyundia i got worried and stopped at 1/4 bottle and chunks were already pinging at that point. Like marbles in a can. The key to a safe application is getting the engine and catalytic converter mostly as hot as possible. Set everything up so your ready to hook up after a hard drive to get the converter hot. That way chunks will vaporize when they hit it.. When finished drive moderate the first couple min then get into it a few times. For about 15 min of driving then change the oil afterward.

Xylene is good stuff. Also, PEA or polyetheramine is one of the ingredient to look for. It breaks carbon down by dissolving instead of breaking off larger pieces. Larger pieces would be destroyed in combustion and sent out the exhaust valve. The most common issue I’ve seen in the field is melted cats or contaminated upstream oxygen sensor. - MAKE SURE THE ENGINE IS AT OPERATING TEMP BEFORE USE. Also not recommended on vehicles with worn spark plugs (over 80-100k mi) - Can cause pre-ignition and/or detonation. - For non-GDI engines, in preparation for intake cleaner, run a bottle of STP ULTRA 5-in-1 (25-50% PEA) or Redline Si-1 (28-34%) in fuel tank (Follow instructions on bottle!) - Fill fuel tank and perform induction cleaning - change oil

It works, as demonstrated, the part that STP doesn’t tell you is that ‘chunks’ will break up and get into your combustion chamber and some will lodge between the Piston rings and cause ‘Oil burn’ issues. Also, change the Oil a day later and you will see a lot of broken off carbon bits in the bottom of your Oil Pan! So yes, it works but…

@@Voltrondefenderoftheuniverse I think it did, but I suspect my car might be better off with a professional cleaning with the walnut shells. I changed jobs and only drive around town now, rarely going above 45mph so it seems to clog up quickly. 90% of my driving is to the grocery store (1/2 mile) or to work (2.5 miles), so the car doesn't even warm up most of the time. The instructions say to insert the tube into the hose for the intake manifold at the butterfly valve and reconnect the hose, but my hose end has a metal insert and crushed the end of the tube. Traded it in for a second bottle and left the hose off slightly and it worked. I think I'm going to do this again this weekend, but this time insert the tube just before the turbo incase that's the cause of my hesitation.

There’s gonna be a ton of carbon buildup on those valves. With that much mileage it’s gonna smoke pretty badly. But should run significantly smoother .

Do this with complete fuel system cleaner and motor flush. Put that fuel additive few days before and drive with sportmode in highways. Change motor oli after this cleaning process with motor flush. Use that fuel system cleaner half way of oil change and before. That keeps engine cleaner and carbon builds up only in the intake manifold. No need motor flush anymore but intake need to clean and it's better to do same time when change oils. Get the carbon out from engine. If you only clean carbon it's going in motor oil... and back to the intake.

Do you think this would work if the intake manifold is off where the valves are visible where I could just spray it on the valves? Id really like something that foams up that I can spray in the intake runners.

When you consider with direct injection fuel does not go over the valves, it should be no surprise that in some cars they look horrible! I just hope that if I ever get a direct injected car it also has secondary injection which would clean the valves. I find that really hard to believe that they would ever allow this to happen with cars. They are always worried about fuel efficiency and emissions. I guess they don't realize the problem direct injection can cause with that when the valves are dirty.

I use foaming action Easy Off oven cleaner. Just warm the engine, fill the valve covers and intake manifold, let it sit overnight, start the engine the next morning and VOILA! Not only does it clean, it restores worn and damaged parts! AND a cherry pie magically appears on top of the engine when the process is complete!

It will work, the throttle body is tighter to get too though I am a tech at Honda and will say it’ll be way better to access one of the vacuum hoses on the intake manifold. Also because the throttle body’s on Honda’s don’t tend to Gum up all that bad.

Honestly not a 100% fix but I highly recommend to not follow the minder percentage. It will sometimes carry past 5k miles between oil changes. If your running full synthetic oil cap at 5k miles and change oil anything between 4-5k it ideal I also have friends running 5W-30 synthetic and that’s shown to be most effective.

You should just go with a fuel system cleaner. This is meant specifically for GDI where the fuel isn't sprayed directly onto the valves but directly into the combustion chamber. Regular motors spray onto the valves thus cleaning while providing fuel.

Most mechanics I know and most auto manufacturers say NOT to use engine flush/cleaner as it dislodges lots of garbage inside the engine, and that is not a good thing. That stuff does not just magically disappear, you know. Ask your own mechanic, ask at the dealership, and then do what you think is best, but don't take some guy's video advice. I asked my mechanic, and he did not look at all happy.

I don't have a GDI engine, but I run a bottle of GUMOUT for GDI engines in the fuel tank after ever oil change. I may put an oil catch can on the engine anyway just to reduce the oil vapors going into the intake manifold. I had a carburetor on a generator get jammed up from the vapors routed into the air intake from the crank case, so I re router the vent through the front of the air cleaner so it passes through the pleated air filter, solved that issue.

I saw this stuff on Oreillys website, wasn't sure if it was worth the $40 or not. I just replaced the intake manifold on my 03 F150 5.4, I looked at the intake valves and they didn't seem to have any chunks on them. They had a thin layer of carbon though, I may go ahead and spend the $40 to give this stuff a try.
