    Fuel Injector Flush

    What's involved with a full injector flush? My throttle body is also clogged with carbon and in need of a good cleaning.

    when i did my injector flush, i first take a rag and put brake oil on it to clean inside the throttle body, then i take my little tool thatbypasses the main fuel line and i buy a bottle of cleaner and attach it to my tool. i start up the car and let it run till is stalls, then take the tool off and hook everything back up and start up the car!(dont forget to turn the fuel pump switch off, jus hit it with your fist! )

        spray out the throttle body with throttle body cleaner or carb cleaner, suck half a can of seafoam thru the brake booster hose, and put the rest of the seafoam in the gas tank. let the car sit for 20 min, and start the car and let it run......watch the smokeshow lol

              muhahahah this is gonna be great..

              basically, you take seafoam, and feed it into a vac line (like a brake booster line) and make sure to let the car "sip" it, to avoid stalling.

              Once you get about half a can in, turn the car off. Dump the rest in the tank.

              Wait 20 minutes. Start the car (might have to give it a little effort) and give 'er hell.

              Enjoy the smokeshow!

                You guy's were right about the smoke show. 14 years of carbon out the pipe in a few minutes. What a difference in idle and no hesitation. What a great product.... :banana:

                  that stuff does rock. Used it on my S10 last night and the annoying miss at idle and ping under load problem its had since I've owned it is gone now.
