I think these kinds of products work best if you have a sticking turbo (just to get it working again). I found that the only way to reverse serious carbon build up is a good fuel additive every 3 tanks of fuel or so, followed by a good blast down the motorway. If it is really bad then you are looking at cleaning the turbo, egr and intake system properly by removing them from the car (most garages would simply replace them or tell you to scrap the car!)
Looked like an improvement for sure but as with any treatment it potentially needs to be done regularly and well before things get out of control. Every 50k miles would sound reasonable to me.
@@suttonzgarage the only real way is to take of the intake manifold off and chemically clean. have you ever seen an old manifold clogged. needs a total clean
@@mikenas8271 Yeah. One of my first jobs on a car as a head rebuild on a 1.9 Kangoo. I don't know how the engine was even running as it was so choked with carbon lol
Thanks for your review. I'm in Texas looking to clean my Chevy Cobalt SS turbocharged. Valve coking is bad on my car. I want to try revive. CRC seemed to work decently. Let me know what you recommend
I used a different product and different method to clean my pipes in my truck (shown in this video here - ruclips.net/video/it_Grz7K1TQ/видео.html). He uses a cleaner called DPF cleaner, but dont let the name put you off, it works great to clean your entire air intake system (e.g. turbo, EGR pipe, EGR valve, intercooler, throttle body & air intake manifold). My engine sounded better, and worked better.

A lot of the smoke is just the cleaner being burnt off/steam from it
I'd like to see a review of this type done with sea foam if you can mate? I'll get a bottle of revive on order 👍
How's your engine doing so far after the revive treatment?
Really well actually! Been through two MOT's aswell with pretty clean emmisions
You can use pure water spray to get the same effect. Much cheaper
Might do a comparison test soon and test the theory ;)

Mr.muscolo best cleaner
Its bad for aluminium though so its risky so you have to not let it sit for too long or it will react with the metal
probably doing this with the yearly service so you do not get the carbon build up over the years

Why you speak so much?
