UEB302 Member 27 Member For: 13y 2m 2d Posted 30/04/12 06:20 AM Share Posted 30/04/12 06:20 AM Have any of you guys with fg turbos used fords intake and combustion chamber cleaner?I have been using it for a couple of years on my eb v8 and have found it to be good stuff and it seems to clean the oil out of the intake really well.My only concern was the composite/plastic intake on the turbo engine and possibley eating into it.I dont have the car yet but would like to find out this before it arrives.Cheers Shannon Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/79952-intake-and-combustion-cleaner/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

1600dave Donating Members 872 Member For: 14y 4m 30d Posted 30/04/12 09:12 AM Share Posted 30/04/12 09:12 AM Yeah they run a pcv, its at the left rear of the rocker cover. Best bet would be to install a catch can to to help prevent build up on the first place.I bought some of the subaru stuff off ebay, had good reviews loads of people use it. Got six cans of that and six of their fuel cleaner for $40 or so, just waiting for the next oil change to do it.They also say to spray it into the inlet manifold through a vac line, so shouldn't be getting any in the plastic pipes that way.Sent from my LG-P500 using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/79952-intake-and-combustion-cleaner/#findComment-1229645 Share on other sites More sharing options...
