ECU, TCM & module programming →Walnut blasting
Rough idle or recurring misfires? Carbon buildup can be part of the problem on some engines. Ask whether intake-valve cleaning fits your vehicle.
Walnut blasting & carbon cleaning →Engine rebuilds & repairs
Knocking, burning oil or facing an engine replacement? Find out what failed and compare the repair, rebuild and replacement options.
