That too.

 

DDfamobile needs to do a full documentation on this.

 

My brother in law says to use very cold water to spray in when the engine

is hot. He has been a mechanic for over 30 years...

 

Tap water is fine. Just use the water.

 

I'm going to give this a try tomorrow with distilled water (already have a few gallons from the last coolant flush) I'll post a video of it.

 

Obviously not internal pictures... I've had good results with seafoam in the past, curious how straight water will work.

 

just gunna take after pics of the altima because its a paid job but when i do my 4.0 in a few weeks im gunna pull it apart, take pics, put it back together and steam it then break it down to do the head. so il have before and after shots.always been skeptical of the steam cleaning

 

Please do. I'd like to see that.

 

Just got back from the first drive in my wife's XJ since the "steam cleaning" and subsequent driving it like I stole it. Feels better. and guess what? The clok/clok/ noise I thought was a little piston slap is now gone.....

 

How much water did you use?

 

24.672345682 ounces.

Or close.

 

LOL

 

lol. I was figuring about 16 - 20oz would be enough.

 

i was tod a 16-20oz bottle pored over 40 seconds would do the trick

 

Good to know. I just pulled a number out of my *** based off how much seafoam I usually dump in.
