    I woudlnt if I were you, it could clog the oiling lines with crap, I would only add it to the vacume, too risky anywhere else I think.

    lol..well..too late for that..already done.

    So i did the crank case and intake manifold cleaning..

    crank case 1st..seems less ticky now..

    I cleaned it out with the rest of the TB cleaner and very slowly let the vacuum hose sip about 1/3rd of the can down..let it idle for about 5 mins..Took it for a spirited drive and wow..i came back put it in park and the rpms went from 900 at idle to 1400..bad things is though i cant get the engine to idle below 1200 now..
    i dont know if i should be really impressed or really scared..It does run better now though

    This is where the internet starts to suck, the 10 minute wait is suposed to be engine off, higher idle, Im not sure why. Might just be a freak glitch in the universe and it will idle fine next time

    hmm..idk, just fired her up..idle is a bit lower now right at a G and it started right up..usually takes a few cranks..Ths time it started up right when i turned the engine over.
