Cephas 3rd Gear March 4, 2017 Share March 4, 2017 I did not notice if the rpm went up or not , usually I do a light step on the accelerator, then it will move Liao .... I think bring to workshop to diagnose will be better?any workshop for recommendations?I suggest do it progressively. Use snake oil. If ok, rejoice! If not ok, go workshop to open the can of worms... ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamburger Hypersonic March 4, 2017 Share March 4, 2017 TS is using premium fuel. Not to burst the bubble but a can of fuel cleaner not gonna solve issue so easily. And if car is not having idling problem, do not touch the throttle body. Anyhow cleaning it is asking for trouble that is not there in the very 1st place.

Kklee 6th Gear March 4, 2017 Share March 4, 2017 (edited) I got very Long Nv rev my engine Liao .... could that be the problem too? I will try the snake oil 1st 52k nia Rcz IIRC, less rpm, more carbon. Yeah, should try the Techron Concentrate first although if you can, get the Redline SI-1 which reportedly has more of the PEA.

Yeah, should try the Techron Concentrate first although if you can, get the Redline SI-1 which reportedly has more of the PEA. my experience with using the fuel cleaner is it does help. But not worth the 16 dollars. Maybe price at 3 dollars, I would buy again as the effect only last 3 to 4 days Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watwheels Supersonic March 6, 2017 Share March 6, 2017 Nope , just that yesterday the car become responsless when I step on the accelerator , but u know that it can't speed up. Then after awhile a soft jerk then it can accelerate . The petrol lvl is like less than 25%. So my Friend suggested me to go buy the fuel cleaning system Not sure what wrong also Rcz? A turbocharged engine? A lot of things need to clean. Usually start with the air sensors, clean the MAF mass airflow sensor and MAP sensor (some calls it a turbo sensor). Clean using those quick dry electronic contact cleaner from 3M that doesn't leave a residue. I think the turbocharger intake side is also filled with gunk making it heavy to spin effectively. You need to remove some of the air intake hoses to access it and spray throttle body cleaner into the intake side of the turbocharger. Cleaning the throttle body also helps, you gotto know where it is loosen the hose clip/hose and spray throttle body cleaner on the valve flap. I suggest you get a mechanic to do it if you dunno how. For me I know how to clean these things on my car's engine so it's not a problem. Because of the pcv(positive crankcase ventilation) return hose a lot of the engine oil/petrol vapour gets returned into the air intake system contaminating the above parts along the way. After driving for a couple of years w/o cleaning them regularly your engine will lag in terms of response. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
