** means the shop has been recommended by at least 1 forum member (not necessarily this site)

Thank you to uwsacf (from impalassforum). He used to sell these machines and has suggested the treatment to many people, both on and offline, and and it has had surprising results. I have used it myself and recommended it to friends with seemingly uncurable drivability problems and have usually been astounded at the results.

Ditto:
I have used Motorvac also with excellent results. Much better than BG.
It also depends on the operator or tech doing the job. The guy I use locally really takes the time to disassemble the MAF and clean with toothbrush and pays quite a bit of attention to all other components that get dirty during normal use. i.e. EGR valve, ISC, etc. I pay him to do this on all my vehicles around every 30,000 miles. In between those services I clean with seafom about every 10K miles. Since doing things this way for the past 3 years we have not had any driveabilty problems related to emissions, etc. Definitely worth the time and minimal expense.

What?? No Montana location???

No Idaho, Wyoming or North Dakota or South Dakota?

DIcks....


*hops on horse....gallops away*

Hey Mark, sounds like a business opportunity for ya!

If you do find one for those states, please add them to the list. Just make sure they use the real MotorVac chemical.

That's disappointing. My brother is a diesel mech here, I'll see if he knows of any in the area.

I've overheard dealer service advisors trying to sell a fuel system service to customers with low mileage cars... anyone know what the dealers are doing when they perform such a service? Maybe something "similar"?

Ok, here's a location in MN, in Moorhead. (right next door to Fargo)

Todd's Alignment and Repair

May not help anyone else here, but it works for me!

Had the MotorVac service performed this morning, $100. They also cleaned the TB plate and bore. Took about an hour. For SURE, the Riv fires quicker on startup, it had been hesitant to fire lately, had to hold the key in the start position a hair longer than usual in past weeks. It also seems quieter at idle, perhaps smoother.

This afternoon I hooked up the LS1M and drove around a bit just watching KR on the gauge. Definitely seeing reduced KR at part throttle around town. I could go moderate throttle with zero KR. I was seeing 6+ deg of KR this summer on mild accel. Seems I've dropped a couple degrees by having the fuel system cleaned. I also changed the fuel filter, after about 14k. Went out of town and did a WOT run also, will get to that later tonight maybe. Then I topped off the tank, and will see if my mpg's vary much from normal after this service.

Had a look at my WOT scan from this afternoon, and sure as hell, I didn't see as much as 3deg of KR. Under WOT it ranged mostly in the 2's, peaking just under 3deg. Still running lean, as my LTFT's at WOT showed around +10. Of course this is still with the 3.8 pulley on.

I added the location to the list. Thanks for reporting your results.

Here's another location in MA, USA
Lancaster Auto Service
Lancaster, MA 01523
Tom is the expert. Does an excellent job. Very anal about cleaning everything and making sure car is correct before leaving. And he does use Motorvac product.
Motorvac is manufactured by SUN and sold by Sun / Snap-On dealers.
Will update with Phone number later.
