used the lubro molly product in the pic.... maybe was the wrong choice... thoughts? got my hands on some B-12 made by berryman ... was thinking of trying that out after i have run the engine a bit to get the other stuff out... let me know what you guys think...

 

How did you do it, something is wrong, either the product used or the method of cleaning.

 

I used about 3/4 of a can of sea foam through a vacuum line and didn't get very much smoke, there was definitely some, but not as much as I've heard should come out. 95 DI 139000 miles. did I do it wrong too?

 

I believe i followed the directions i got from both you and and spike. which were:

start car - disconnect rubber hose from valve cover on passenger side - slowly add fuel system cleaner to this hose (on the side taht i removed from the valve cover, so that it is being sucked into the intake plenum) - started seing a bit of smoke towards the end of the bottle but not much. - shut down the car and waited for 30 mins. - then drover around on the autobahn for 30 mins.... not really anything coming out of the tailpipe. In fact I would say that I have seen less visible exhuast since then.... almost nothing ... weird....

 

I see that as a good sign, to me that means there was little to no carbon build up.
My truck does not smoke either when I do mine.
I have used the B-12 before, pretty good stuff.

 

I think ill give the B-12 a try, maybe half the bottle as it seems to be pretty large.... if nothing with that then ill just assume it to be pretty clean ...

 

What color should the smoke be when doing the induction cleaning? I did mine and it was pure white. Quite a bit - looked like I was doing a white smoke show and then it smoked white for a about a mile or two when I drove it. It would seem if it is removing carbon the smoke should be black. Did I do something wrong?

Thanks

 

obviously i dont know myself as i didnt get smoke but the seafoam video i watched shows white smoke.

 

yes the smoke should be white.
