where to get a intake plenum cleaned

[Gly]

well thanks to brad i have a VR4 intake to fit to my legnum,
trying to get to the 100kw ATWs (4WD)

hoping this will help it breath a bit more. and get a few more kw,
currently at 93.1kw

anyway had a close look at it today and its bloody oily in the inside...

so where can i take it to get it cleaned out??

prefer somewhere in the auckland area, and the closer to manukau the better.

and cheap would be great to

I don't think the dish washer is a good idea!!

Paraffin - AKA:

nujol, mineral spirits, adepsine oil, alboline, glymol, liquid paraffin, paraffin oil, saxol, or USP mineral oil.

I think a bottle brush and meths would do a good job, and strong household cleaner should be ok too.

[Kieran]

Meths is okay....ish. It's not the world's best degreaser though, and seeing as it's a VR-4 intake plenum, you can best your bottom dollar there will be a good coating of oily crap on the inside of it.

I've got some Wurth Brake Cleaner that'll clean it out in no time...let me know if you want some...the brake cleaner not cuddles!

[bradc]

no-one mentioned cuddles until you bought it up? Now is it gay to cuddle?

Deffinatly gay when its UC and Gly...

On my old GDI, I just used some simple green degreaser (can get it from the warehouse, and other places...) and a water blaster. Worked a treat and didnt take too long
