i got my car back in driving condition now after the unfortunate accident. I've got a friend who owns a body shop, so he was able to begin working on the car before the insurance got involved with it. It's all good now, because the other place was going to take 1-2 weeks. Anyways, my car feels like its lagging so much. It's power seems to be non existent. The g tech times only get worse, like in the 8's now. I still havent gotten around to going back to NGK plugs, but is there any maintenance stuff i can do for it? its got 102k on it, so im not sure. Its got new o2 sensors, new knock sensor, straight piped from the resonator to the magnaflow muffler, and i dont know whats going on. There is this place in town, offers a motor vac cleaning, its supposed to clean out all the gunk in a high mileage engine, increases acceleration, gas, bla bla bla. Its 90 bucks, so is it worth it? Any other ideas, please help me out. Thanks

 

did you check for codes??

try running chevron through once or twice, it seemed to have worked for me and was cheap. chances are though since you just got in an accident, something might have been pretty messed up. let us know if you get/got any codes cuz that's a big indicator towards problems. g'luck

 

im not getting any codes. i had it checked even without the check engine light on. I've been having this problem before the accident too. What do you mean run chevron through it?

 

so has anyone ever heard of this motorvac cleaning? and if so, anyone find it worth the money? not trying to be annoying, but i feel like my car is lagging

 

helllloooo?

 

i had it done on my 92 max works wonders i paid $49.99 back 5+ years ago those things really works

 

do that go back to NGK plugs, flush the rest of the fluids. Go buy yourself a y-pipe. It should be fine.

 

i work at a dealership and that vac cleaning you speak of is the same thing as seafoam cleaning. it does help significantly but do yourself a favor and pick up seafoam.

 

i picked up some engine clean out stuff, but i cant remember the name for the life of me. Anyways, guaranteed results with 500 miles, or money back. I put it in my oil on saturday, and tested it out tonight. HOLY COW. i took the g tech timer to it and get a personal best in the 0-60 *7.16* and 1/4 mile 15.64 @ 90.9 mph. It says to add a can of this stuff at every oil change, so i guess ill have to do that. Ill get back to you all with the name of the product. It was only 7.99 at autozone.
