4th Generation infection cleaner?

i was thinking of doing a throttle and infection cleaning and MAYBE a top engine, it has 131000 miles and when u hit the throttle, it sometimes pulls quick but others it drags, so could this solve it?

I'm not sure what you mean by pulling quick vs. dragging. If you are referring to the pressure that you notice on the gas pedal that is almost always a throttle body and linkage problem. Use a throttle body cleaner and a tooth brush to clean out the butterfly valve and the vacuum ports. Spray a liberal amount on the exterior linkage (with the two cables and springs) too. That should take care of the dragging feeling you get at the gas pedal.

If, by dragging, you mean poor pickup then an injector cleaning might help. However, you probably also need to start going through all of your sensors and vacuum hoses to make sure that they are working properly also. They all affect the way the computer runs the air fuel and spark.

I'm not sure what you mean by doing a top end. If you mean running something like Sea Foam through the vacuum port it might help. If there is sludge you may need to be more aggressive.

If you're talking about racing performance then you've probably already done this kind of stuff and are way out of my league.

No. Go see a doctor.











LOL. Seafoam works well- try feeding thru the brake booster.

Infection cleaning is a medical problem and has no place in an automotive forum. However, I wouldn't be surprised if Seafoam kills germs.

For infection cleaning, you need to DRINK the Seafoam.

I can see misspelling it once, but you did it twice, haha.

Or did you really think it was called infection cleaner?
