Ok thanks

I'm saying I wanted to use it in my car FOR THE VIDEO, RATHER THAN IN MY VAN, it's not a past tense thing where I wanted to use it in my car at some time in the past, you really couldn't put that together?

a DIY Car Guy linustechtips is that you?

yea you have to get someone to press the gas pedal for that

Be careful! With direct injected engines. I see some claiming now that the carbon that gotten broken up ends up in the cylinder walls, ruining pistons and rings

🤣🤣

Wait 10,000 miles is what I've read..

I’ve called CRC they recommended waiting 1000 miles before applying another treatment of there is heavy carb deposits

uhhh none of that happened for me

or you car doesn't have tach

haha thanks!

No.

I have a 2012 Ford Focus with a GDI 2.0L engine. I just did this for the first time today with 105,000 miles on it. When it came time to take it for a drive it smoked up my whole neighborhood, and I could hear pieces of carbon making noise in my engine as they came loose and worked their way through. I trust the valves and seats are harder than the carbon and came through ok. Engine ran great afterward. It ran great before too though. It seems to have more acceleration at higher RPM now. We will see how it does over the coming week and see if it improves more. It is nice to have the piece of mind that the valves are clean. What do you consider a GDI engine "not lasting long?" With 105K miles on mine it still runs like new. But it's had all the oil changes, air filters, and I put in a new set of spark plugs. Time to change the belts, inspect the hoses, and change coolant.

1001Hobbies I have a 2017 impala with the v6 it’s GDI it’s my first GDI engine car. I’ve heard and read forums that state, that those engines run with very high pressure making it more likely to go bad. I hope not I like my impala. It’s a dope ride. So I just want to stay on top of its maintenance.

@@unitedwestanddividedwefall3521 - Fuel pressure on a GDI engine is up around 25,000 - 30,000 psi. Let it be said, your injectors should have no problem staying clean. Also, there are millions and millions of GDI engines out there now. Ford has changed their 3.5L EcoBoost engine so that it has both GDI as well as port injection. They say this helps with fuel economy and something else. In my opinion, it is to address the intake valve getting carboned up because the detergents in the gasoline will keep the valves clean. Yes, a typical GDI engine will get carbon on the intake valves. A lot. Ford officially has no approved method for cleaning them, but people have successfully cleaned their valves both with walnut shells (requires removing intake manifold) and with Sea Foam, as well as this CRC product. I am guessing Ford does not want liability by telling people to clean their valves this way. Just a guess. I did mine. I am not sorry. I am happy with the results. For the record, I graduated from an automotive tech school, did it for a living for a few years, and have worked on cars for 40 years. I also am not accepting any liability. What you do with your engine is up to you. For my engine, this CRC product really seems to fill the bill.

1001Hobbies that’s good man. Yea I’m planning on using the CRC stuff before my next oil change.

I'm not sure, it doesn't say anything about it on the can.

NO

I tried to get a pic of it, but the words wrap around the can too far and I can't get it all in one picture.

Really is that what it says?

Yea it's designed to work with the turbo installed on the car and the engine running, I just happened to have a loose turbo laying around that was easier to show on camera.

@@aDIYCarGuy Thank you, and one more thing do I need to change my engine oil and filter after that?

@@robbyalmendrez1750 Should change the oil, so it's best to do it right before an oil change. You don't need to change the filter due to using this product, it gets sprayed in after the filter. So you can just change the filter at the manufacturer recommended interval.

@@aDIYCarGuy Thanks buddy for the tip

thanks!

JAYMAN ONeill Seafoam won't clean the carbon build up at all.💯 Try this stuff from the video and you won't go wrong🤓👍🏻

I imagine it would help clean it out. You can even use it to help start your diesel if the glow plug system stops working lol. but you didn't hear that from me.

im wondering the same thing

Liquidmoly diesel intake cleaner is the best for tdi

NO

It's definitely not a GDI engine, I don't have any GDI cars but they wanted a video done and I'm not gonna say no lol. Point of the video is to show how to use the product.

Yea, didn't mean to sounds like a douche LOL

You didn't lol, it was a reasonable sounding comment.

You want to clean a GDI the only thing I know that works. Is water injection!

@@MasterChief-sl9ro then you can hydro loc your engine bad Idea

yea it's made for turbos

Cause your stoned

the guy driving in front of you used it and your drawn by the fumes.

Cuz u need to do this lol

@@joezuerlein4358 HOW DID YOU KNOW -

The time will come when this information will save your life

what

a DIY Car Guy you said 46% removal or something which is false

That's what the product says 46% read the can

I have gotten that SAME conflicting information from CRC but this guy is just reading what's written right on the can so don't knock him just yet 0:33

naw I wouldn't do that

@@aDIYCarGuy what about throttle body and intake cleaner or brake cleaner or degreaser? I'm just trying to use stuff I already have lying around lol

@@koreymayo8884 Oh I see, no don't use anything aside from it's intended purpose haha. The only one of those I'd spray into a running engine is the intake/throttle cleaner, but only with the intention of cleaning the intake or throttle body, and only use as directed on the can haha, don't use the other products the way I use the Valve and Turbo cleaner in the video lol, they might damage your engine.

@@aDIYCarGuy I wasn't going to use anything while the engine is running. I'm taking my intercooler and pipes off tomorrow to switch to an aftermarket kit and was thinking I should clean my turbo and throttle body while I'm at it.

​@@koreymayo8884 Oh in that case the intake cleaner would be the best thing to try, not sure how it will be at cleaning the turbo but it won't hurt it. If you totally remove the turbo then you could hit it with brake clean, wipe it off, and let the brake clean evaporate before reinstalling.

ya, because it is, it's the law to disclose it

hmmmm....

that's called legal disclosure, I don't have an endoscope, CRC's engineers did those experiments already

Yea Sue is my way

Are you a little slow as to how the economy works? Next job you do, do it for free. Paid does not mean biased.
