Brian P Posted November 15, 2002 Report Share Posted November 15, 2002 GM dealers have a top engine cleaner meant for carburated engines...GET THE LIQUID not the aerosol...about $7, get it then I can give you the procedure. HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stlunatics2oo3 Posted November 15, 2002 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2002 okay i will get it tomorrow and then i kno you put it on a vaccum line and all that but i was wonderin which vaccum line is the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian P Posted November 16, 2002 Report Share Posted November 16, 2002 When I did it, I used the biggest one that was coming from the throttle body....big mistake, because it sucked in all of the cleaner within 10 seconds!!! I'd say it's best to get a small piece of tube from sears (the harder plastic type, not the latex or rubber tubing. Get a size between the big vac line and small one), remove the big vacuum line and stick the new tube in the hole....rev the engine by moving the throttle linkage so the engine doesnt stall....when the bottle gets 2/3 down, let go of the throttle and let the engine stall (it will quickly) wait 10? minutes, then restart and use the rest of the cleaner like you were before.
