Using it
Always follow the recommendations in the equipment manufacturer's instruction manual. Do not use on vehicles equipped with superchargers or diesel engines.
Warm the engine to normal operating temperature, then switch it off. Disconnect the air hoses and wires on the air intake duct between the throttle body and the air filter box, then disconnect the duct from the throttle body and inspect it for leaks or tears. Place a cloth under the throttle body.
Shake the can and attach the extension tube. Spray into the throttle body bore while moving the butterfly valve back and forth by hand. Remove dissolved deposits with a clean cloth and clean the throttle linkages; the product leaves a lubricating residue.
Reconnect everything, start the engine and rev it for a few minutes to flush out all product. Idle speed may be higher than normal for some time until the ECU adjusts to the new air flow properties.
Flash point below 0 °C.
It contains xylene 20 to 40%.
