An odd thread,but I was using the suburu upper engine cleaner on my mates 6cyl commodore and DAMN! the thin plastic tube you stick in the nossle to spray hard to reach areas came off and was Oh so close to getting sucked into the engine!
It freak me out,I thought they may have killed his engine?
I have been lucky not to suck anything in there when working on it.So it got me to thinking -
Has anyone else sucked anything into thier Throttle body or know of someone who has?
What happened!? :p
well same thing on my subaru using upper engine cleaner it sucked it lol~ got stuck like in one second and quickly turned engine off.
how mad is it when it smokes out whole street.
Did U turn the engine off?
Where did it get stuck?
More Info plz! :)
wtf is subaru upper engine cleaner?
u mean carby/throttle body cleaner?
No,it's way better than that.You spray it into the TB and it cleans all the carbon,oil,gunk out of the TB,IM,valve's and everywhere that it contacts when it's been worked through the upper engine.Brilliant!!Quote:

No,CC is crap for that.Quote:
