H20 Treatment Question
Hey guys, I've got an 87 GXL, and I'm wanting to do the H20 cleaning trick.. I read up on it and I know you have to pull one of the vac hoses off and put it in a bottle of water, Can anyone be nice enough to take a picture of the hose and maybe circle it in paint or something? I'd appriciate it =)

Bump...Yeah, I've read up on the ATF trick. My engine seems to have alot of life left in it. very peppy and loves to be revved. But I was going to do the water trick just to give it some extra health...Can anyone send me a pic of what hose to unplug? =)

HimniRacing says it's getting stupid putting water and **** in there and he recommends Amsoil Power Foam.
GuitarJunkie says GM top engine cleaner.
Here's mine:
• Seafoam Treatment on Rotary Engine. (didn't find Amsoil or GM)
This ****** Smoked Alot.
More than what you see in the video.
That's just the clearing process since I was up by the engine bay feeding the Vacuum lines with SeaFoam.
I put a clamp on the throttle so it would stay at about 2500RPM, then redlined it in the backroads...
I don't know what that smoke is all about.
I mean burning some type of chemical will smoke. I don't know if they were the damn carbon bullshit.
My Compressions are 110PSI for both rotors
Some JackAss told me I had 85 like 2 yrs ago. and He was supposed to be a RotorHead. He Probably Lied To me Big Time. But Why? My compressions are about right. 2 of us checked it, and the car wasn't fully warmed to the Normal Temp. About 5 Mins Idle.
(Cold Engines show less compression )
V I D E O
NKG SPARK PLUGS AFTER SEAFOAM TREAMENT
Carbon/Fouled up.
Comparison: Old/New
Right one is the virgin, as you can see the hole is tighter than the left.

ROTARD FOR LIFE!!!
Hey, wouldnt mind seeing that pic of the vac hose ether... I know its suposed to be one that goes to the intake, but theres like a million of them... which is the best one?
Why not put it into a spray bottle and spray it directly into the intake?

FSM 4A-5.
To the immediate right of where the Sub-zero starting fluid valve is POINTING TO (not where the text is located).

Though this is different for nearly every year and model, the underlying goal is to find 1 or 2 vacuum nipples on the intake manifolds after throttle body, preferably on the lower intake manifold so that the water can run straight down into the block. You want to feed both front and rear rotors evenly…generally you have 4 intake runners, 2 for the front, 2 for the back. Some engines have one nipple that can feed both (s4 turbos, for example, have one above the BAC valve that is evenly split between F and R primary runners). Some engines (fd’s and s5 na’s for example) have 2 separate nipples that can be teed together externally (vacuum hose and tee) to evenly feed both rotors.
