Start the engine and allow it to reach Full operating Temperature. You are now ready to perform Tri-Maxx2000 Stages 1,2,3,or 4. STAGE 1 (Fuel Delivery System Cleaner-Combines with Stage 2 to clean O2 sensor & Cat. Converter) 1) While the Engine is running, empty the entire contents of STAGE 1 (White Lable) in the fuel tank. STAGE 2 (Intake Manifold & Combustion Chamber Cleaner) 1) While the engine is still running, remove a vacuum hose from the PCV Valve, brake power booster or highest convenient vacuum hose from the intake manifold (make sure it does not lead through any plastic tees or check valves) and connect the FI01002 (reusable) or the FI1002-D (disposable) feeder kit to the hose making sure the brass valve on the feeder kit is closed. Use CAUTION to make sure the feeder kit hose is clear of the radiator fan and exhaust manifold. 2) Adjust the engine speed to 1200 - 1450 RPM except turbo engines which remain at idle, OR you can leave all vehicles at idle, it takes a little longer. DO NOT RUSH, THIS STEP SHOULD TAKE 6 TO 9 MINUTES ! 3) Connect the #FI01002 (Reusable feeder to hood or under hood latch to support I.V. Bottle) (*Disposable feeder, attatch product bottle to hood) 4) Close the brass valve on Part #FI01002 (Reusable Feeder)and pour entire contents of STAGE 2 (Black label) cleaner into the bottle of the part #FI01002 feeder kit bottle. Slowly open the brass valve on the feeder to allow the STAGE 2 cleaner to flow slowly through the vacuum line. (*This Procedure is the same for Disposable feeder) The engine may shake during this process. If the engine should stall, close the brass feeder valve, restart the engine and continue. 5) When the entire contents of the feeder kit or product bottle have been pulled into the engine. Shut off the engine, remove the feeder kit or product bottle, reconnect the vacuum hose and return the engine idle to normal. NOTE: If Lowered emission readings are desired, take them NOW, before the next step. STAGE 3 (Piston Ring & Positive Crankcase Ventilation System Cleaner) 1) Wtih the engine SHUT OFF, SLOWLY empty the entire contents of STAGE 3 (Red lable) cleaner into the crankcase oil. Make sure that the oil fill cap is installed back on car. Re-Start the engine. It may sputter or stall if the Positive Ventation Valve or (PCV) system is clogged. Re-start if needed. Allow to idle for 3 to 5 minutes. Stop Engine. Leave product in engine. The remainder of the Product will vaporize and disappear after 50 or so miles. It does not need to be removed. Best to apply after oil change, with new oil in the motor, when possible. STAGE 4 (Throttle Body & Carburetor Cleaner)is only required on engines equipped with throttle body fuel injection or a carburetor and will not harm them. (NOTE: DO NOT USE ORDINARY CARBURETOR CLEANER ON NEWER TEFLON-COATED THROTTLE BODY MODELS AS IT IS CAUSTIC AND CAN DAMAGE THEM) 1) With the engine off, disconnect the air intake boot from the throttle body or remove the air cleaner cover from the carburetor. Spray about half of the contents of the STAGE 4 can into the throat while working the butterfly valve back and forth. Start the engine and spray the remainder of the can contents into the throttle body or carburetor using short spray bursts. Reconnect the air intake boot or air cleaner and let the engine idle for at least five minutes or drive the car at once. NOTE: The "check engine" light may come on due to the rise of hydrocarbon vapors created during the cleaning process. On 1995 and older vehicles not equipped with OBDII coumputers the light will turn off by itself within 5-45 miles, or you may turn it off with a scanner, or simply pull the negative battery terminal for 30 seconds. This is a safe way to reset the coumputer. Keep in mind you will need to re program some accessories such as clocks and radios. Copyright 2000-2010, H.D.I. Management Inc.
