Having a car that looks great is wonderful, but a great paint job and shiny tires means nothing if the car doesn't run great. For those of you that like to keep your car looking its best, now you can keep it running like a champ with the 3M Do-It-Yourself Fuel System Tune-Up Kit.



http://www.autogeekonline.net/gallery/data/1094/3M.jpg


This kit includes everything you need to clean out those dirty fuel injectors, restore power loss, improve fuel economy, and protect the engine against carbon build up.

It's very easy to use and requires basic hand tools and a little bit of mechanical knowledge. If you can change an air filter, then you already have what it takes to use this kit.

For this giveaway, we're looking for a gear head with a daily driver that needs a little TLC. If you would like to try out this kit and post your feedback, reply to this thread with the mileage on your car and you will automatically be entered to win. :props:


:hotrod2:

Also let us know if you have used this before, we would love to hear some feedback. Any interest in the Geek carrying this?

The winner will be picked on Monday, May 23rd.

Pick a vehicle.... (Sorry for the large pics, it is all I can access while at work - delete if necessary)

1995 Impala SS - My sunny day driver, show car, race car, etc.191k miles

I also record every tank of fuel in my maintenance books so I can track MPG's and such. (I know...not normal, but it fits nicely with the detailing disorder many of us have) I do nearly all the work on my stuff, including oil changes, brakes, suspension, heater cores, etc. Not a "hardcore gearhead", but I did swap the automatic out of my Impala and put in a six speed manual with the help of a friend who has much better tools than me.

The only fuel treatment I have used is Chevron Techron and the Impala gets some Sta-bil in the fall when it goes into winter hibernation. If the 3M stuff works, then Autogeek should carry it!

Thanks AG!

Sorry for the blurry picture, it was taken with a cell phone camera.

Here is her info:

2003 BMW 325i with 119,000 miles on her!

She has some knocking in her right now, and is reading cylinder 4 misfire. This was after changing the spark plugs, oil, as well as switching around the coil packs.

I've been wanting to try out a kit beyond the standard fuel tank drop in products to see what it could do, and to me, this car would be the perfect candidate!

I have recorded mileage, and would be more than happy to take readings of cylinder compression, a/f ratio, and CEL codes before and after... I would love to see how this kit affects her!!!!

*DISCLAIMER* This is the one product from AG that I will NOT taste.

Wait a minnit...it's not enough that I spend all this time and use all kindsa products on the OUTSIDE of my car...now I gotta detail the inside of my engine, too? :(

Oooh! Pick me! Pick me!

My car has "only" 51K miles on it, but it is a 2000 Porsche Boxster S. These flat-sixes are notorious for having gunked up intakes, nasty throttle bodies, etc., I suspect due to the difficulty in separating the oil vapor in the crankcase.

I have a whole shelf of fuel injection cleaner and carb cleaner and was about to rip my intake system apart to clean it where the inside is generally soaked/dripping with oil and grunge. I have been looking for some kind of injectable stuff like the intake system cleaner that is part of this kit.

I am a total gear head starting from when I rebuilt a Ford 429 as a teenager. I have numerous mods including a lightweight flywheel, under-drive pulley, thermostat, etc., to eek out and maintain any HP of this engine. I also have a G-meter hard-wired where I monitor the performance, so I can tell if there is any statistical change in power.

I would really like to try this product :-)

Finally, here's a pic:
