Gumout® Foaming Intake Valve & Turbo Cleaner with CarbonClear™ deep cleans GDI (Gasoline Direct Injection) / PFI (Port Fuel Injection) intake valves, as well as, the throttle body, intake ports, fuel injectors and combustion chambers, and/or turbo compressor and turbine to restore fuel economy and maximize horsepower. Removing carbon & fuel deposits from gasoline engine’s intake valves, intake ports & turbos is essential to ensuring optimal vehicle performance. Made with CarbonClear™, the most advanced P.E.A. cleaning agent available, Gumout® Foaming Intake Valve & Turbo Cleaner is strong enough to cut through thick carbon deposits, even at extreme engine temperatures. The patented high foaming formula atomizes better than typical liquid cleaners to thoroughly coat the full air intake/turbo system which ensures a complete system clean while also minimizing the risk of hydro-locking the engine.

Thank you a lot, I'll try this on my 2013 Hyundai Genesis Sedan 3.8... it doesn't feel like it's got that problem but I'll use it as preventive maintenance... hopefully it works in this car engine type..

@TheGumoutChannel 4 месяца назад

This is definitely a service that you want to do before there is a problem. With GDI engines the carbon buildup on the intake valves can become so bad it has to be mechanically removed. Better to do a little preventative maintenance than have to do a lot more work down the road.

Can this be used for a Kia Optima 2.0 Turbo? The air intake looks different then the one in the video, want to make sure it's safe and won't his the MFS.

@TheGumoutChannel 2 месяца назад

The key is finding where your mass air flow sensor is. I recommend you watch this video it will as it help you identify where your mass air flow sensor is (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ykZgu5YkJ2c.html). Once you locate your MAF sensor make sure you are introducing the Foaming Intake Valve & Turbo Cleaner after the sensor. You could also introduce the cleaner right before the throttle body.

@chrisedwards4878 3 месяца назад

Can I also do it right where it connects to the throttle body like how the Sea foam directions do it I did the Sea foam treatment before I just don't want it so close to my mass air flow sensor if I do it from the other end

@zlatkozivkovic8694 2 месяца назад

Look for the vacuum hose after the MAP or MAF sensor and you will be just fine,

@TheGumoutChannel 2 месяца назад

Introducing it right before the throttle body would be fine. Just make sure the hose does not come into contact with the butterfly valve.

What's the difference between specialized intake valve cleaner and carb cleaner? Doesn't carb cleaner does the same job?

@TheGumoutChannel 5 месяцев назад

Gumout Foaming Intake Valve & Turbo cleaner is a more aggressive cleaner than Gumout Carb/Choke Cleaner. Made with CarbonClear, the most advanced P.E.A. cleaning agent available, Gumout Foaming Intake Valve & Turbo Cleaner is strong enough to cut through thick carbon deposits, even at extreme engine temperatures. The foam also helps with atomization, as well as, dispersal throughout the intake, while minimizing the risk of hydrolocking. Gumout Jet Spray Carb/Choke & Parts cleaner has a powerful jet spray that is designed to blasting away gum, varnish, carbon, oil, grease and dirt deposits from the inside and outside of the carburetor or any other unpainted metal part.

@edgjr 4 дня назад

Depends on what you want to clean… If you’re trying to clean the overall system then start passed the MAF sensor near the airbox. That’ll clean your turbo, throttle body and valves. If you want to focus the cleaning concentration more on the valves then maybe connecting it directly to a brake booster vacuum line that goes to the air intake will do just that.

Turbo engines does not suffer this (loss of performance) as much as atmosferic engines.. turbo can always add up pressure (ECU takes care of that)

@TheGumoutChannel Месяц назад

Correct, turbos do have an advantage because they are boosting air into the combustion chambers but as the turbo becomes dirty its performance is diminished. Combine the diminished turbo effectiveness, with carbon build up on GDI intake valves along with dirty injectors and you’re not getting the MPG or performance your car is able to deliver. Clean air and fuel in = better performance and MPG out.

@zlatkozivkovic8694 2 месяца назад

Adding anything to your gas tank of a direct injection vehicle will not and can not clean your turbo or valves clean since in direct injection vehicles, fuel get injected into the cylinder directly. It could clean the piston rings clean but not much else. Spraying this into the air intake could/should work though.

@TheGumoutChannel 2 месяца назад

You are correct, a fuel additive added to the gas tank will not clean intake valves or turbos. However, a pour in does reduce the amount of buildup on the valves because, as you mentioned, it cleans the rings and combustion chambers which reduces blow by. Also, don’t discount the cleaning a pour in additive with CarbonClear (has PEA) does to GDI injectors which tend to have more buildup on them than PFI Injectors.

@skilledshots7200 3 месяца назад

The gum out "all in one" after to maintain is senseless for direct injection. He admitted it in the video, fuel sprays directly into the cylinder, not over the valves. Hence, the use of the foaming spray to clean the valves...this is what happens when you hire somebody to read cue cards instead of an actual mechanic

@TheGumoutChannel 2 месяца назад

You’re only half right, an Intake Valve Cleaner, unfortunately, does not clean GDI injectors. GDI injectors tend to have more stubborn carbon built up on them than PFI injectors. This is because GDI injectors are inside the combustion chamber. For lack of a better description, the carbon bakes on GDI injectors because of combustion. Over time, this carbon disrupts the spray pattern reducing GDI injector performance. Adding a Gumout Fuel System Cleaner with PEA based CarbonClear after using the Foaming Intake Valve & Turbo Cleaner will clean the injectors which helps maintain the crankcase. Our video from the Oil Geek, Fuel is the ENEMY of your Engine! explains this: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1V1WMAJllgc.html&t - unburned fuel causes blowby which increases carbon build up on the intake valves. If you haven’t checked out The Motor Oil Geek’s channel you should, we guarantee you’ll learn a lot: www.youtube.com/@themotoroilgeek Sadly, where you are correct, using a fuel system cleaner won’t stop, again it only slows, carbon from building up on the intake valves which is why we recommend using Gumout Foaming Intake Valve & Turbo Cleaner annually.

In our extensive testing we cleaned a Ford V6 ECOBOOST F150 with great results. The method we used was applying an equal amount to each turbo air inlet. Half the can on the driver side turbo inlet, then the other half through the passenger side turbo inlet. The product’s foam cleans the engine and turbo very well.

Il just rather stick with fuel injected engines.

@TheGumoutChannel 2 месяца назад

Port Fuel Injected (PFI) engines do make keeping the intake valves clean a lot easier. Just using a Gumout Complete Fuel System Cleaner on PFI engines will ensure your injectors, intake valves, combustion chambers, and piston rings are cleaned. Our CarbonClear cleaning agent has also been proven to maintain O2 sensor and catalytic converter performance. Direct injected engines (GDI) do make maintaining performance more difficult because fuel is no longer sprayed over the intake valves, which is why this service is needed as well.
