      Mr. Anderson. lol. Sorry. I like throwing mister in front of first names occasionally. And that just has the extra benefit of cool Matrix moments.
      Anyway, if I were to risk ruining an intake manifold doing this because it was so much work to clean it that if it didn't get done quickly I'd rather buy another one, I'd let it cool as slow as possible and do nothing to cool it or keep it from getting as hot.
      You see, that makes the metals more brittle when you do.

      ***** Just use a good chem dip. Easy, quick, doesn't risk bending your intake.
      Your car may be more responsive afterwards. Is it a 4 cylinder? Most of those have more power down low with smaller intakes than stock. It may hinder performance until you're at a higher RPM.

    • @DENicholsAutoBravado
      @DENicholsAutoBravado 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      ***** if you're serious about keeping it clean, add an oil catch can to your PCV system. Empty it each oil change or find you only need to empty every 10k miles. It all depends on if your engine is worn. Mostly, the PCV helps you burn gasoline your engine didn't keep in the combustion chamber. It also reduces fuel in your oil, which reduces carbonic acid, which over time erodes your engine.

    • @mikehigby7897
      @mikehigby7897 7 ปีที่แล้ว +42

      the reason they use COMPOSITE intake manifolds these days isn't because it's cheaper. they use it because plastic can't be heated up as easily as a metal like aluminum or steel. this allows the intake charge temps to be lower when the motor is heat soaked or at operating temp. the lower the intake air temp, the more ignition timing the computer will advance.

      You realize that's exactly how a forge works yeah? That is hot AF there. Aluminum castings are not really made for that. If they were, they'd use them for exhaust manifolds. Takes 1200-1400F to get carbon to move. Straight aluminum melts around 1200. The alloy used in this casting probably a bit higher, but still doesn't seem like a totally great idea. It is cool to watch though.

      Yes, but while the carbon deposits are what's burning in the manifold, the combustion process is still dependent on the oxygen in the air that is being blown through. Since the fuel is being burnt by means of a gaseous oxidizer being pumped (or blown) through it, it's a hybrid.

    Dramatic and fun to watch. You might be generating enough heat to crack or warp the manifold or to alter the alloy and make it brittle. I don't think that I've ever seen a manifold with that much buildup. I think that I'll stick to using some organic solvent, some patience, and a brush. I'll try your technique to remove any left over residue.

      Many times doing something slower is actually faster for long term... What if it's cracked... what if it's bend? Funny bit is that he may not know that is cracked, but his turbo will definitely feel the pain...and blasting with jet wash is not that slower anyway...

    I think this is a great idea. Not something you’d do to a customers car especially if they’re watching... the likelihood of any warping would be slim as the as the flanges aren’t getting all that hot the focal point of all the heat is going to be near the end of the airline inside the cast. The amount of ejected debris is amazing.. shame all my manifolds are plastic
