    Default Subaru Upper Engine Cleaner...

    First of all watch this video:

    YouTube - subaru upper engine cleaner (seafoam)

    I ran this stuff through my car yesterday and not one puff of smoke/smog came out of my exhaust... I know i was putting it on the right place because the car was stalling whilst i was spraying into a vac pipe off the side of the intake manifold.

    Thats a good thing - it means there is not much carbon build up.

    I ran this stuff through my old corolla and it was like an atom bomb went off. This is really good stuff...

    Oh ok, makes sense i guess..

    I recently cleaned my IAC valve on my throttle body and its was clogged with carbon and shit..
    So i automatically thought my top end would be ****ed..
    I think my TB needs a real good clean out.

    Yes, most definitely. If you own the 3800, remove the entire TB and give it a real good clean.
    Just becareful replacing it, the springs and cables need to replaced properly.
