View Full Version : Deeper tone after intake cleaner?

My idle has been a bit off so I sprayed a whole bottle of intake cleaner into my thottle body and (with difficulty) she started up and some black shit came out my fart cannon. I ripped it around and right from the getgo it felt better however my exhaust tone is really deep, is this a side effect of the cleaner?

just curious, I generally stray away from any additives, sprays and cleaners.

It just all the shit coming out clean it with a some kind of towel too and clean the airfilter if its bad. but it should go away soon unless you got some weird shit that sticks to your pipe ?

Ive had my new exhaust a few months and theres no soot at all on the muffler, im sure it'll go away. just wondering why it would do that.

how about cats. It could have cleaned the cat if you have one. Or just some crap inside of your exhaust manifold.

you're supposed to spray it in while the car is running. that stuff will actually pool in the intake if you just spray it continuously with the car off.

i don't think you broke anything. if the exhaust tone really changed, check for an exhaust leak or something.
