The back of the intake valve is exposed when it leaves the seat (opens). Whatever is in the cylinder (non combustible top engine cleaner) hits it. My 2 cents. I'm done inputting to this post. Take care......

The delivery system is air, not fuel. When the intake valve opens the fluid gets on it. In the 60s engines, the 'stuff' hits the back of the intake for a split second, long enough to do it's job. The stuff is not combustible. You would get the vehicle to operating temperature, rev the engine to...
I used AC Delco Top Engine cleaner in the 1960s to remove lead deposits on valves at the Chevrolet dealership where I worked - hundreds of cars with 99% customer satisfaction. I was the shop foreman at the time. This stuff always increased engine performance and cleaned valves. It worked great...
I wasn't waiting in line. I bought and enjoyed a Tacoma off a local lot. I enjoyed reading about would-be owners fretting about their self-imposed issues while I tricked out the Tacoma and waited for an opportunity to buy a Maverick. One of the reasons I bought one is positive feedback from...
I spent a month searching Ford dealerships in the area. One dealer marked a used 2024 with 3000 miles $3000.00 over new invoice and said they would give me a $3000.00 discount. That is just ONE of the nightmares I had to deal with. I went to a local dealership on the 29th of November, '24 to...
The vehicle was spoken for and the dealer/owner should have shown some respect for the customer/buyer. That disrespect shows what kind of service/relationship the buyer can expect in the future. That is what I would have said to him followed by what part of his anatomy he could stick the truck...
I am running custom wheels on my <4 month old Lariat. I am going to try these tires when the OEMs are worn down just a thought, not a solid recommendation; Goodyear Eagle RS-A Police 245 _55 R18 103V SL VSB FC:
The Goodyear Eagle RS-A Police is a performance tire created to be original...
I'm looking at 245/55. They are 7/8" wider and the diameter is .0197 less which will keep the speedo pretty accurate (.02 -.03 difference). The truck looks beefier with just the wheels but the tires will really fatten it up. I'll probably do it late fall so I can put on a more aggressive tread...
I replaced the stock Lariat wheels after two months of service. They are Drag DR-19, 18" Dia, 8.5" wide, 42 offset. The wheel centerline is moved outward 3/16", and the tire outside wall is 7/16" further out. The load capacity is 1600 Lbs. The tires will have to wait. I'm cheap, summer is...
