This crap, Seafoam, BG Cleaners etc won't help a Direct Injection engine.... nothing will because direct injection engines do not have the injectors inside the port where the detergents would wash off the valves as you drive, but inside each cylinder. Using seafoam, etc into an intake manifold orifice won't help either.
I used "Sea Foam" and it worked great at keeping the injectors clean and values, plus a mechanic told me to save a bunch of money in replacement injectors if you take them out for engine work get all of them in a tied bundle with the sprayer side sitting in a "sea foam" soak (ONLY THE SPRAYER SIDE) and not the electrical plug at all so that the liquid covers the opening to at least 1/4 inch, let it sit for over 8 hours (I left them sit for 12 hrs) and all the dirt & grime was gone and worked !"
The valve on the left is a new or cleaned one, the one right is showing the losses caused by a dirty valve seat. usually caused by poor ignition. fuel turns into this gummy nasty crap.
I have a few questions,,,how does this improve fuel mileage///will this stuff reduce cylinder friction?///will this stuff reduce my cylinder temperature? Also, how will an oil clean my cylinders?
I like to know all I can before I risk putting anything in my tank since there is no miracle in a bottle.or is there?
It cleans injectors,intake and valves....170,000 mile on two cars. Used this once a month. NEVER had a bad fuel injector..I've never replaced injector on any car I've owned. My sister had a 87 jag I think thats the yr? It got stopped up injectors. Her jag machanic told her to fill both tanks with gas. it had two. Then put 1 bottle of lucas in each tank. Then drive it a few days. if it dont unclog it he'd replace the injectors. Within a couple days the car was running great. I learned then!
Well if you can think of a way to put a camera inside a sparkplug so the cylinder can fire and show it being cleaned without taking the plugs out every couple of cycles then your the first. Ugh public schools.
yes I know the injector sprays into the valve what im asking is why am i watching the valve insted of the injector face, all you have to do is put in a new injector and gee its spraying mist duh, it's not that hard to figure out noob
@OKINAWA78 Read the back of any injector cleaner bottle, and it will say it is suppose to clean off the carbon deposits within the combustion chamber, valves, and injectors. trying to view the injector would be a huge task I'm sure.
I created this video while a researh engineer at Chevron Research. Welded a boss onto a Toyota 4AFE intake and drilled to fit an Olympus Boroscope camera head. Took images every so often to show cleanup with Techron Concentrate is real and fast. Other versions of this were made for customers (aftermarket chemical marketers). One version almost made it to the Superbowl in 1996.This version was made by cranking the engine with the starter to watch the injectors fire. I don't know who posted this.
@OKINAWA78 cant you see the difference? the one on the left has had the cleaner, the injector is turning the fuel into a mist, more efficient that way. on the right its dripping in, the engine needs to use more fuel to compensate. this is the best vid for seeing the actual difference.
@OKINAWA78 The injector is mount before the intake valve, this video is showing the intake valve, I think this user is using Injector cleaner into the fuel tank, and running it for 100 hours, it become cleaner compare a clean intake valve did not uses the injector cleaner, it will become dirts.
@OKINAWA78 Because its showing you the fuel flow from a clean injector into the cylinder as opposed to the flow from a dirty injector,,not that hard to figure out really.
@OKINAWA78 I think that phrase was pretty universal before it got translated. In japanese, it probably meant "Use stuff to clean your engine's insides!" In America however, there's 20 different types of the same exact thing (fuel injector cleaner) on the shelf at ever gas stop... so it kinda gets grouped together.
@OKINAWA78 because the injector sits right behind the camera, watch the spray and you'll notice that the spray is more atomized which improves the air-fuel mixture and ist a tell tell sign of a clean injector
@OKINAWA78 Because an injector cleaner does more than just clean the injectors.Injector cleaner is basically a carbon remover,it will remove carbon from the internal parts of an injector as well as from valves,intake (just from the injector on to the valve) and combustion chamber.I use Lucas and have achieved very good results on my 97 Chevy 6.5 turbo diesel.
@OKINAWA78 If you have a normal injection setup, you're in the right spot for watching the action of the injector as it sprays on the top of the intake valve. Unless you have a direct port or tune port setup, this is the right angle to watch the injector.
@OKINAWA78 because the injector cleaner "should" clean your intake valve at the same time....the injector sprays onto and through the intake valve leaving crap all over the valves...
if you reroute your pcv hose you wouldent have to wory bout this as often. as well as removing ur egr valve or reroutin it...its what i did and didnt have to wory bout oil build up on my intake valves...
That's pretty cool. I took my intake off on my 200,000 mile V6, and the head port looked shiny and brand new like the first sequence. I'm guessing today's gas has additives in there that do the same thing.
its not important to clean the intake manifold, they are often even after 200kmiles clean.. give me something that cleanes the outgoing tract
