I was helping my frd on his instrustion assignment for his technical writing class... We pick the topic on how to decarbon on our cars...
so here you go...

 

fixed

 

thanx thanx

 

Nice write up man. Will it be the same for a 3.5?

 

they should be the same... but i am not sure since i dun have a 5.5... so... go check the location of the break boost line

 

Do it closer to the engine, not all the way at the booster.

You're asking for trouble running any sort of liquid through the booster check valve.

Few nitpicks:
Step 2: The vacuum line is not connected to the master cylinder, but to the brake booster itself.
Step 3: 'Remove the vacuum line by losing the metal clip using the plier' (?)

 

kool write up

 

Thought we already had a write-up for this?

 

Ok so I've got a question I searched and read alot on this topic and one question kept comming up and never got answered. My car has 114k on it is it safe to use cuz I've read that people think that it shouldn't be used on high mileage cars... key word being THINK so does anyone KNOW if this is true cuz I want to do it but not if it's not recomended for mileage simmilar to mine.

 

we have several...including one by me in the fluids section

 

I have a question...ultimately, what does this do for my car? Does it clean stuff out and make it run better?

 

yea i was kinda wondering the same thing the guy above me is.
i've seen it done but, never really understood the point.

 

Its supposed to do that. I don't think the stuff works and if it does i would not reccomend it for high mileage engines

 

Just curious why any input is apreciated

 

answers to all these questions are available...in the fluids section

 

no they're not thats why I asked everyone THINKS its not safe for high milage cars but does any KNOW this for a fact or have any input why?

 

Think about it, the more miles on your motor the more things are going to be worn down. The carbon and other substances build up on some of those wear items, and old gaskets and etc that might have some sludge holding the gasket together. So when you add a cleaner it takes away from what was somewhat holding and sealing things in your motor. Thus you might find oil leaks and oil consumption occurring. Of course this is IF the stuff is strong enough to eat away at carbon deposits and etc... Which i have read it is not.

 

Thank you finaly some decent input one more thing what is considered high miles cuz I dont think 114k is high for a nissan.
