Do you just spray the cleaner all around or do you remove the whole throttle body for cleaning ?

If it is just spraying , where do all the dirt go to ?

Into the inlet manifold ?

Will that lead to the dirt getting into the pistons , combustion chambers , valves etc ?

Would like to try someday .

Not surprising for 2 spark plugs per cylinder. I upgraded my ignition coil to those high power types and I improved my idling from 900RPM w/o A/C to 600RPM. Ignition upgrades are worth their weight in gold. Your emissions will improve because the petrol is guaranteed burned to a crisp.

 

Imagine with a MSD. [thumbsup]
