i know it's those special tourq heads . i cleaned an extra one i had laying around and it seemed to work good with carb cleaner. but im gonna pop it out after work tomorrow and see how dirty it is .

on a side note after spraying the tb cleaner down the throat of the engine while running . when i took it out for a test drive and got a chance to clear it's throat it left a could of junk behind me. i guess it cleaned up some of the junk out of the motor. now it dont feel so slugish 

anyone think i should still do the steam clean with the watter threw a vaspoogee line to the intake. ? or stick to the Tb cleaner

blakct: why stop relying on what my plugs look like wouldnt that be something to judge whats going on in they chambers.


 I was only saying that you seem to be relying too heavily on plug reading.  Maybe you just have clean plugs.  Perhaps it's not really lean at all.  What other lean symptoms was your car showing?  Good O2 sensors should usually take care of any rich/lean conditions, as long as your other sensors are in good shape.  So as I said before, replace your fuel filter and check your pressure again while under load at WOT.  In other words, tape the fuel pressure gauge to the windshield and go for a good hard run while your passenger tells you what the gauge reads.

Good luck.
