The Ultimate Guide to DIY GDI Carbon Cleaning ( Gasoline Direct Injection Intake Valve Cleaning )

The Ultimate Guide to DIY GDI Carbon Cleaning ( Gasoline Direct Injection Intake Valve Cleaning )

In this video I'm going to take you through everything you need to know about GDI valve cleanings. We are going to cover the differences between port fuel injection and Gasoline Direct Injection or GDI. We'll also talk about why GDI builds carbon up on the intake valves. Then, we will attempt to clean carbon off of the intake valves using an aerosol GDI carbon cleaner from CRC. After that I will show you how to remove the carbon from your intake valves using some zip ties, a drill, and some patience.

The professional alternative to the zip tie method would be using a walnut blaster to remove the carbon build up. These machines cost over $400 and are simply not realistic to the home DIY'er.
