Isn't the Italian Tune Up basically driving on the freeway at close to redline for like 15 minutes? . . . . that seems a little more excessive to me than a walnut blast every 30K miles?
I could have sworn someone posted something about this and it stated that you needed to have the car get to a sufficient temp to break up the buildup on the valves. And that required running the car at 5K+ rpms for like 10 minutes? I'm probably remembering it wrong, but its is only 3+K rpms, that is a drive in to work in 5th gear
I saw this too. Not sure if it's right or not.
How does one apply the crc product? Through the Intake port?
Yeah I tried to click it but it seems like a dead end. I will try on a laptop.
That's so cool. I'm also wondering about our MAP sensor in the Gen3 and how this could work, and George's comment about chemical product getting deep in the cylinder and causing a problem. If this is suitable for us, would be so great.Yep. On the Tig I disconnected the intake pipe and was able to get straw past MAF sensor. Gen3 has MAP. There is a video embedded in this link showing how to use the product.

My car is approaching 19k miles, I'll scope it this weekend and post the results.
I'm pretty hard on my car, so we'll see how well the Italian method is/isn't working.
