I am trying to find the best intake system cleaning i can do at home. So far all I have really found was a 3M kit and an STP kit. The 3M kit has everything you need, and the intake cleaner works through the TB as an aerosol. The STP kit has a liquid that needs to go through your brake booster vacuum line. The problem with this kit is... Where do you get the feeder for this??? I am a clumsy person and I know I can not do a free pour with a funnel at a consistent rate without over pouring and flooding the engine. The Other problem I see with these kits: I don't need a kit, I don't need the fuel additive, nor the TB cleaner ( I have already completed these steps) I just cleaned my TB. First time I have ever done this. I never realized how nasty the intake system can get. So i have a clean TB, but the rest of the intake system behind it are just as varnished, if not more so. I am pretty competent at doing many things myself but I do not want to go through taking the intake off completely to clean it if I do not have to. That brings me to the next question. Do these kits actually work well? Or is a manual removal and cleaning really the best bet?

Thanks for the input!

 

So has anyone used anything like these? or do you all just pay 80 bucks to the garage to get it done?

 

Seafoam work's... it would work like the STP product you mentioned...

 

Nothing is better than the Good Old Elbo Grease. I prefer takeoff and clean than a spray etc. Who knows what you knock loose. If you got the time and patients than give her a good cleaning.

 

Ok, but do I need to buy the 70 dollar feeder for it? That is the only style of tool I have found so far that can be used for the STP type stuff.
