Man could you see some big time car dealer sugesting to a customer well what we needs ta da here is get some water or tranny fluid on top of them pistons to clean um up---and then see the oshia folks when you are filling the shop full of smoke

and yes they ran so much better way quicker response no lag time and you know we hardly ever changed the plugs that were like a whopping .99 cents each

Can I actually buy this pressurized can for the rails?

Or can I use compressed air?

after some reading i heard its a concentrated spray.

Do you basically just pour some seafoam directly into the fuel rail?

very confused as to how exactly the dealer performs the service.

The way we used to do it at the place i worked was pretty simple
On some systems there is a port or a access tube where you can attach a hose
that is attached to a canister of some type of a concertated injector cleaner we would start the car and run the rpms's up then open the canister to let the cleaner go directly into the rails then to the injectors with the car running anything that it busted loose which would be really small was sucked out the exhaust
How they do a PT I dont knnwo but Id bet its really close and Cruzn said there is a way to open the rails and do the same thing

my best advice is to get it on the open road and step on it
