need "Top End Cleaner" advice
i just wanna go over this to make sure im doing it right..
first i just spray the cleaner into the TB, thru/past the MAF sensor with a tube on the end of the nozzle (like WD40 tubes), while the car idles
If the car dies during process, stop spraying and recrank, then finish spraying
After the can is empty, I turn off car and wait at least 15 minutes, but longer is preferred (if so i might let it sit a few hours)
Then after the waiting period, i take it out for some WOT action to expell the rest of the crap/carbon out the exhaust.
THEN change the oil.
sound about right?
sucks though, i have 0 miles on my current oilchange, since its been parked for a while, think maybe i could just drain the new oil and put the old oil back in till after the cleaning process?
I still have the old oil
i hope this works, cause im blowing some MEGA nasty junk out of the exhaust....hell, im leaving black streaks up and down the driveway and garage from it
thanks in advance, guys
i dont know what i'll do without this board

Re: need
That is correct.
I personally would just change the oil again. I wouldn't want to dump the old crap oil back in. But, I suppose you could do that if you are comfortable doing it.
