I called CRC & told them car/yr (2011 Optima) and they said it's perfect to spray in at the 1st point past the air filter. It is a hose clamp maybe 2" diameter, easy to access. No MAF sensor he told me. No other components to worry about getting the cleaner on. It worked perfectly. By myself and could not accelerate the engine when spraying in. Car did not stall when spraying in slowly. Worked excellent with great results. 1st time using 70k miles.

I've found that doing half through the throttle body on the right of the engine and half through the hose on the left hand side that connects to the PCV valve works the best. It evenly covers the valves on every cylinder and cleans both sides of the intake manifold evenly. Great video!

if u have carbon deposit, please use this one! My 2013 Sonata has exactly 160k miles and had check engine light with misfire cylinder 2 and 4. I used this bad boy and took care of the problem. Just follow the instruction exactly! Spray directly into the throttle body. my mpg went to 40 freeway driving! god damn, this shit works!!

Did an “Italian tune-up” in my 13 Optima 2.4L without any valve cleaner and it helped my car run smoother with better highway mpg. Drove about 65 mph in 4th gear for 10 min and then about 70 mph for another 15 min. Carbon + high-temp = bye carbon 🌞 It’s been a couple weeks now and still running well. I’m definitely gonna be doing this procedure you demonstrated at my 80k mile mark. Btw! Make sure to the change oil with the new API SP / GF-6A /5w-20 oil -if you still have this car. Video is 3 years old 😆

I would suggest doing some fuel-additive and/or doing so with premium fuel (it should have no ethanol if you buy from a TopTier gasoline station - which imo is more important than these additives, an engine) along with regular maintenance, none of that extended mileage crap. The problem is that does little if anything for the GDI design, this one in particular doesn't have any detergent reaching the intake valves so it it almost useless for that... I would suggest doing this but only 1/2 can along with every other oil change or so, that way any funk that is captured or contaminates the oil will be caught in the old oil/filter and you can change it all out 🙏

Folks, get a friend to sit in the driver seat and feather the throttle around 2K RPM while you squirt bursts of the cleaner into the intake. Far better than using a stick, brick, etc. Buy yourself and your buddy a pizza to celebrate when done (eat it in the hour that you are waiting during the heat soak)! During the highway driving, do the "Italian Tune-up" to blow the crap out.

First of all, THANK YOU! First video I’ve EVER seen of someone using this product on an Optima and actually SHOWING where to spray instead of saying “just spray it in the blah blah”, as if everyone knows every mechanical term of the engine parts. My only thing is that I have a 13 SXL 2.0 and I’m wondering if I can spray it in the same location as you or not.

At 2:33 when you said 'loosen up that' and tapped is the easiest and only place you really need to open to spray in. Not that anything you did was wrong. It's just way easier to open up the one spot IMO. Good video though.

@@smokey_9447 yes but if it’s your first time using it I’d just spray it through the intake hose and then give your throttle body a separate cleaning another time(don’t forget to be gentle with the butterfly valve, these are electronically controlled, you might want to do it with the car off and somebody sitting behind the wheel hitting the pedal). As far as going through the brake booster line, I’ve heard that’s fine but you need to weigh the risks, you may be hitting the valves from a different angle but it’s easier to knock a piece of carbon off so I’m told.

LV. The 2.4 and the 2.0 turbo engine on these cars are all GDI-Gasoline Direct Injected. They are all prone to excess carbon deposits on the back side of the valves so all of them can benefit from the cleaning. Good luck and thanks for the comment.
@lambokiller99

No bro, you don't need to do this. Your fuel is already cleaning the intake valves, on gdi engines the fuel goes directly into the cylinder and doesn't pass the intake valves, that causes the intake valves to build up carbon.
