cleaning the intake

[tristo89]

hey guys pulled the intake manifold off my 2002 patrol zd30 engine cleaning for egr blocking plate but there is a lot of build up on the head its self any ideas as to how to clean that without getting inside the cylinders.

[mudski]

Very carefully. I will be doing the same in the coming month. The head on mine is quite dirty too. I might hit it with the karcher first.

[Hodge]

I think people soak it in kero overnight or something like that... In the morning everything should just fall off supposedly.

[mudski]

He's talking about the head itself Eric.

Hi tristo89, did you find a way to clean the head out mate

[SupRob]

I wouldn't touch in ports on the head unless the head is coming off :/

High pressure Hot Water works way better in cleaning then any chemicals then chuck in a parts washer

Rob,
