Are you trying to unflood it? Or trying to get compression back? Or what...



Need some more details.

the reason you pull the egi fuse by the driver's side strut tower is because it disables the injectors and i believe the coils as well.



Which enables you to rotate the engine and spread the atf/mmo through the engine without it attempting to start on you.



you can use a 19mm socket and breaker bar on the front pulley to rotate it wit the key off to the same effect, but just make sure it's out of gear.

Anybody ever dump MMO in the gas tank and see a mysterious increase in power?



Is this practice recommended? Not recommended? A waste of time? Insane? Brilliant? Deranged? Should I make a poll?

My dad and I built a couple of street ported 12a's that he ran MMO through fanatically. He ABUSED those cars and got over 200K miles out of each of them...



I use it in my GXL. I am a firm believer that it helps reduce internal wear. I don't know about the power gain though.

More smoke out of the exhaust. Its not so good to use in premix apparently because of the extra smoke.





No poll needed.
