So I decided to clean my upper manifold on the NS manual today. Its done about 261000kms and i put a catch can on at about 240000km. Ill go back at a later date when i have a rocker cover gasket and do the rest along with tappets etc.
Before: Very slugish of the line no real acceleration till 3rd gear and on boost.
After: Actually accelerates of the line and doesnt feel like its being held back in 1st and 2nd. Im sure the full clean will improve it more
It took me about 5 hours.
10mm, 12mm and 14mm Sockets
If your not using power tools a 600mm breaker bar is a must.
My EGR was impossible to open by hand without significant effort. After the clean i could do it one handed with little effort.
I used glymse oven cleaner from bunning on the EGR. I also removed the egr motor before cleaning the valve.
Soak in oven cleaner 1/2hr,scrape with trim removal tools rinse with water. Repeat. Did this twice then 3rd time rinsed with gerni
On the manifold section and egr pipe. I soaked them with oven cleaner for 1/2hr then
