3rd & 4th Generation (1992–1996 & 1997–2001)Toyota Camry Discussion for years: 1992-1996 & 1997-2001
Topics of discussion range from fuel economy, safety, modifications, performance all involving America's favorite family car, the Toyota Camry.
I bought an injector cleaner and the guide to use it is too intricate for a novice like me. Can anyone please point to what I need to do with some visuals. (1994 5FSE Camry DX) Thanks!
Here are the step by step instructions for application of the fuel
injection cleaner through the Induction System.
1- Get the engine up to operating temperature
2- Find a vacuum port on the engine that has manifold vacuum on it all
the time. The vacuum port should be as close to the throttle body as
possible.
3- Get a length of vacuum line that will fit tight over the vacuum
fitting, approx 2 to 3 feet long.
4- Get a pair of vice grips or pliers so you can pinch the vacuum line
off.
5- Put one end of the vacuum line on the vacuum fitting you found
close to the throttle body and the other end in the open can of the
fuel injector cleaner. Now take the pliers and pinch off the vacuum
line.
6- Start the engine and let the engine idle. Slowly release the pliers
so the engine starts to roughen up, but does not stall. Run the
complete contents of the cleaner until it is gone. After the contents
of the cleaner is finished shut the engine off and let it sit for
approx 15 minutes.
7- After the sitting time put your car back to normal...vacuum lines
ect ect. Start the engine up and keep it running until the engine idle
is stable. Your engine may run rough for a little while. Now go for a
good run on the freeway or higher rpm driving. That's it; use the
other products in the kit as per the directions on the cans.
if you look in here thru the search function OR you tube and search for how to seafoam the camry, there is a bunch of step by steps and then a vid on your tube using the brake booster vac line and letting it suck the stuff up...
why not just get some cleaner or even seafoam and put that in the gas tank. putting the clener in the induction system wont really clean out the injectors i dont think. where did u get thoes instructions?
then that might not be the injector cleaner, cuuuz every injector cleaner ive ever used has gon directly in with the gas. could be wrong but thats my 2 cents.
You are bidding on a BG Products Emission Service Kit. The kit includes one of each as follows: BG Air Intake System Cleaner
Part No. 406
5 oz. Spray
Safely and rapidly removes accumulated deposits from the butterfly/throttle valve, throttle body and idle air control valves of the air induction system. Contains lubricants and anti-corrosion ingredients. Safe on oxygen sensors and catalytic converters.

11 oz. can

It actually restores that "like new" driveability to an engine's performance and keeps it running better, longer and more efficiently. Add one 11 oz. can to fuel tank at fill-up.

As previously mentioned, do a search for Seafoam posts. Its application is virtually identical. There are even some links to youtube videos showing the process.
An easy vacuum tube to use is the one going to the brake assist on the back firewall in front of the drivers seat. If you don't want to use pliers on your tubing consider the "slurping" method suggested by many of the members. It should work the same for BG.
