Easy way to improve your throttle response and performance...

Just got a BG induction service done, then I got a new fuel filter, so total were talkin like 150 bux, and my engine is running so much better. My car has 68k miles on it, and the throttle response is so much better, its so much easier to break the tires loose, and it revs so much more smoothly. I highly recommend this. Plus its a great way to make ur engine last longer if u ask me. Anyways true 150 will get u a ftra ram air or maf, but those wont do u any good if ur engine is gunked up or worse, not running in the future. Great preventative maintance, plus u get some nice performance out of them as well, it felt as good if not better as when i added my high flow lid.

me and a few buddys were talking about the best method of using seafoam and deepcreep


we all just followed the directions:
and 1/3 can seafoam until engine stalls wait 15 mins and start engine

but one of the guys was talking about adding 1/3 like we all had and the adding the rest into the engine through the oil spout and then add another half can into the gas tank with a quarter to half tank of gas


what method has worked best for yall?????

Dont stick it in your oil unless your going to drain it after 10 minutes of running. That stuff isn't good for your oil system

Is a BG induction the same as a Motorvac Carbonclean. I am about to do a Motorvac on my T/A. My dad did one on his 120K Silverado and he claims it runs just as good as when he drove it off the dealers lot.

basically with seafoam you suck it into your engine, typically through a brake vacumn line, and let it sit and saturate the cylinders. it disolves the carbon and grim build up and then after 15 min or so you start the car and rev it up. the car will smoke like it's on fire and it will spit all that disolved crap out.

deep creep basically is the same thing but designed for the upper intake, instead of the cylinders/pistons.

it works great, is only like $6 a NAPA and its easy.

i did it on my 96 and noticed a bit more crisp throttle response

BG is a brand name I see at alot of
gas station/service centers(sunocos). Its may be
a geographical name but its fuel injector
cleaning. I don't know the whole process
but it runs cleaner through that can't go through
directly cause you can't put in the gas tank and
run it-you guys know what I'm talking about.

I've seen "BG raditor flush" too
