Those machines look impressive. I would imagine they work well for their intended purpose. https://www.carboncleaningusa.com/techn ... n-cleaning

How it relates to the PCV system, I am not sure.

Thats just for the combustion chamber.

It’s working inside the cylinders as T says, you need to clean and replace the parts of your PCV if they are gunked up.

Did you the glove test to see how’s much pressure is in your system?

Not yet ... I been working all week but im off today and i will check today...

But so its safe for me to do the chambers thing then???

I just want to be sure , I was worried it might do something to my sensors ... like MAF ect......

And having the chambers cleaned does what in a possitive sense ??

Do i do anything after i have that done like change a oil?

Im ALSO planning on putting that SEAFOAM in the oil
Too or do i do seafoam first then have that chambers cleaned out on the machine???

Thank you...

No, skip that. If you have enough carbon in your engine to cause problems you would know.

We await the glove test picture, It had better be a pink or purple glove, too - with a smiley face in sharpie on it.

As above, these engine cleaning 'jobs' are mostly a marketing thing, don't really clean anything inside the engine. The only cleaning I would do is removing and cleaning the injectors. May as well do a Seafoam treatment, but this won't help a clogged PCV system. Mind you, some PCV boxes are perfectly empty yet the system still gets faulty, so it needs replaced.

Dang it!! I just bought that carbon package thing...,

We won’t think less of you. The average fantasy sports spend for guys is $653, so your way ahead of most guys. The carbon cleaning actually has value, too.

Which machine did they use - was it the one on the right or left in the picture?
