All done, simple job to do that's for sure, though I'd recommend against doing it in an underground carpark!!!!! Set off 2 car alarms while holding the revs to keep from stalling whilst spraying the cleaner in and nearly filled the place with smoke!!!! Got heaps of white/grey smoke, since it wasn't black does that mean I didn't have much carbon build up inside the engine? After doing that and changing my fuel filter it did seem to run nicer/boost quicker but might have just been my mind playing tricks on me, either way it didn't hurt to do it....

Cheers for the info too guys...

While on the topic of this i done my car tonight as my dad was spraying the 2nd half of the can in while i put some pressure on the throttle so it wouldnt stall i noticed the CHECK ENGINE light come on now is this normal?
It hasnt come on since so im guessing its nothing to worry about

Only half the can goes in at any one time.

Use one of the rubber grommets on top of the manifold and then once the manifold th full, pull off the pipe before the TB and just put enough to coat the TB plate and surroundings. You dont need alot because it foams up and coats everything.

I disconnected the vacuum that connects to the BPV and sprayed into there, I seen it on a youtube video. Was that ok? It seemed to work and runs fine
