Ron   gp (Garrett) Posted on Tuesday, March 05, 2002 - 11:13 am:    cleans valves, fuel injectors, etc. additive made by B&G. there was a place in town that sold it.....the local VW/Audi dealer uses it. i will give them a call and post back.   Leslie N. Bright (Leslie) Posted on Tuesday, March 05, 2002 - 11:17 am:    LOL.... Yeah, Ron, but what about those of us who are hours away from a dealer??? FYI to all those Anons.... It's a dealer-approved internal engine cleaner... -L   gp (Garrett) Posted on Tuesday, March 05, 2002 - 11:21 am:    my yocal Sunoco and Mobil station carry it. none of the parts stores do.   Ron Posted on Tuesday, March 05, 2002 - 11:33 am:    "but what about those of us who are hours away from a dealer???" UPS Ron   Leslie N. Bright (Leslie) Posted on Tuesday, March 05, 2002 - 11:36 am:    lol.... But that's worse than paying tax.... -L   Ron Posted on Tuesday, March 05, 2002 - 11:43 am:    But not as bad as a valve job   Michael Noe Posted on Tuesday, March 05, 2002 - 12:10 pm:    Sometimes local NAPA parts stores carry it.   Leslie N. Bright (Leslie) Posted on Tuesday, March 05, 2002 - 12:26 pm:    I didn't find it at the NAPA that I drive past on my way home every day. Maybe a different NAPA might have some.... I wish Advance had it... or even AutoZone... Point taken, Ron.... -L   gp (Garrett) Posted on Tuesday, March 05, 2002 - 12:33 pm:    i bought this stuff from Amsoil yesterday that you spray into the intake (airbox) until the whole bottle is gone. keep the engine at 2K-3K rpm and just spray it in. told from my local part guy that it works very well. will give it a shot this weekend.   Anonymous Posted on Tuesday, March 05, 2002 - 12:41 pm:    I would be careful spraying anything into the airbox and sucking it through the throttle body, you're likely to fry your Mass air flow sensor.   gp (Garrett) Posted on Tuesday, March 05, 2002 - 12:47 pm:    well actually i will most likely remove the MAF and start just beyond it. i have used other products similar to this with no issue. actually use to use this stuff on my boats in the past. not the exact same stuff, but from amsoil i believe. this wasn't a pep boys either.......very experieced foreign specific shop.   olered Posted on Tuesday, March 05, 2002 - 12:55 pm:    Anyone tryo to get it in Atlanta?   Anonymous Posted on Tuesday, March 05, 2002 - 01:23 pm:    Garret you would have a real problem trying to get the engine to rev with out the MAF inplace! Just suck it thru a vacuum line.   Leslie N. Bright (Leslie) Posted on Tuesday, March 05, 2002 - 01:28 pm:    Actually, on a can of some other engine cleaner that I was looking at at Advance, said to do just that... to pull off a vacuum line and then feed the stuff to it that way. I was also wondering about the stuff in a tall skinny can called "Restore"... wondered if it was about the same, or something to stay away from. -L   gp (Garrett) Posted on Tuesday, March 05, 2002 - 01:36 pm:    i was not certain about the specifics on what revs you need to be at, but i was just going from what he had told me. i have yet to read over the back of the can yet. so i was just guessing at the revs and therefor not having to deal with the MAF. i know it won't run very well........especially at revs. maybe it ain't a good idea to run without in any case. i will take a look at what the can says and go from there and maybe go the recommended route of using the vacuum line. ps: on another note. the breather vavles on the manifold: i was told by a LR dealer that you have to buy an entire valve cover to get that part. what is up with that? i was replacing the hoses the other day from the PCV valve and noticed the breather valve (if that what it is) was a bit clogged with crap. sprayed some carb cleaner to clean it up a bit. are they full of shit or what?   Tom P.

The local distributor new my area like the back of his hand and put me in touch with a BMW shop less than three miles from my home. Tom P. 96 Disco   Leslie N. Bright (Leslie) Posted on Tuesday, March 05, 2002 - 03:32 pm:    I had looked there, but the nearest distributor was hours away, so I hadn't pursued it... just might give 'em a ring... -L   Neal Glessner (Nealg) Posted on Tuesday, March 05, 2002 - 08:25 pm:    Are you putting this stuff in for preventative measures or is it useful for specific symptoms?   Lee Posted on Tuesday, March 05, 2002 - 08:46 pm:    Order it from the web at http://rynoproducts.com/. I just used it a few weeks ago and there is a distinct improvement in the smoothness of the engine (97 Disco). Cost is $17 per can. Lee
