works wonders

some claim to report damage after using...i did research before i tried it. 3.0 VG in the brake booster line, put 1/3 of the can or until your engine dies (stalls) then immediately turn car off, wait 7 minutes or so then start back up and let er idle for maybe half an hour. i noticed improved throttle response, smoother running, and increased fuel economy. be careful when putting into the crankcase...i never tried it...i use good ol fuel injector cleaner in my tank

hope this helped

make sure you let the engine suck it in SLOWLY, otherwise you might hydrolock it $$$$. On the VE I unplugged the little hose on top of the TB, and attached another.
