If any of yall ever thought about getting your injectors flushed do it. I got the BG engine decarbon, full upper engine intake cleaning, fuel injector cleaning, intake valve carbon build-up removal and cleaned the throttle body(ive done that several times but it was in the package) and what a difference. I dont think i have ever had this much throttle response in my truck. I guess it was time for a good cleaning.

If anyone who looks at this is in the Cypress area of Houston or dont mind the drive go to Skeeter's auto they did a great job.

Skeeter knows his stuff. He aired from my dad's place about 3 weeks ago and I got to go on air with him. Kinda off topic though. How many miles were on your truck?

I wish I still worked in the Cypress area. Oh well. Hey bro, could you PM me with Skeeter's #? I would appreciate it.

Can you do everything you just said by yourself? Whats involved with the cleaning of injectors? Is intake/carb cleaner safe to clean them with?

you know i dont really know. When i went out there and looked at the truck while they were working on it he had a can of the cleaner hooked up to the fuel line. So im guessing that truck wasn't even running on gasoline it was running on nothing but that cleaner i think the can was at like 150 psi if i remeber correct. Im not sure if you can do this by yourself.

nah, i dont think so anyways. i go to SFA...or I did. im transferring to SAM but anyways. i saw his truck at your car domain and remembered it from school. i absolutely fell in love with the paintjob

i remember thinking "if i ever get custom paint, i want whoever did this truck to do mine." but then i figured, what are the chances that i find out who painted it funny how things work out. im from houston too. who did the paint on the dragster and your bros truck. thats A++ work! hated to see his truck all wrecked up at the end of the semester. is that all fixed now?
