engine cleaning

suprabahamut · 07-02-2007, 09:07 PM

I read in the faqs section about cleaning the fuel and intake using a vaccume port on the throttle body. can you clean any engine this way with carburator and choke cleaner. or is there other ways to do different cars. my brother has a mercedes 300sd turbo diesel and I wanted to know how to clean the intake and valves and the other parts listed in the faqs becuse it has 305000 miles on it and has not had the intake clean or the fuel system cleaned. and if it is diesel is there special stuff to use in the fuel.

I would stop in at a MB repair shop and ask what they do.
