Hey all,
So my GF's 2006 optima has a few CEL's I'm trying to fix. She has a few cylinders mis-firing, and her purge-solenoid isn't working correctly. At least thats what I remember from what the guy explained to me at Auto Zone.
He told me to run a can or two of Seafoam through a vacuum line to clean up the engine to see if that solves the problem before spending the full price at the dealer to get it fixed.
My question is which vacuum line is best to use? I used one that comes off the air filter hose into the engine and it did not work like i thought.... No smoke at all after I let it sit and started it back up.
If someone could help me out with a pic or good description it would be much appreciated.
Thanks!!
