OTC Tools (7448A) Fuel Injection Cleaner Canister

This is a quality tool and seems to be built well. It doesn't come with the cleaner so you have to buy that separate. Since I didn't know this when I purchased it, I found that one of my local auto parts dealers (only one of the national chains carried it) could order it in within 24 hours for a little cheaper than the online price. This tool can be reused many times which really helps since my wife's 2005 Land Rover LR3 has a chronic problem with dirty fuel injectors. I had to purchase a standard air tool connection for the top of this tool in order to hook it to my compressor hose. It doesn't come with it. I also had to purchase a 3/8" brass elbow to a 1/4" fuel hose connection to hook it up to the 1/4" fuel line hose. Otherwise, it came with everything needed (as well as a manual) and worked really well. Sure beats in fuel cleaners for the tough jobs.

I use Berryman B-12 Chemtool fuel system cleaner with this tool and have had improved performance every vehicle I have used it on. 5 of my own and 7 friends vehicles. The trick is finding the appropriate place to intersect the fuel line. Most can have fuel line disconnected and a hose with hose clamps connected using the slightly lower air pressure to keep the engine running without the fuel regulator by-pass opening sending the fuel system cleaner back to the tank. OTC probably does not condone some of these innovations but the tool works using the included manual. The Berryman cleaner cleans injectors, lines, regulators and valves among other parts. I have done a couple vehicles more than once with notable performance increases.

Bought and used on my 2003 Chevy Silverado 5.3. Worked great

This tool works great and was easy to use. I used it with the Seafoam product. It says on the can that it can be used in injector cleaning machines. The engine fired right up on the straight seafoam. There are a few youtube videos on how to set everything up. Additional note: On the two cars that I have done so far, I got a check engine light for cylinder miss fire, so be prepared to reset the light when your done.

This OTC tool did the job just fine as soon as I got the tool to work. I needed to clean out my car fuel injectors and decarbonize the intake and cylinders too. I first tried to decarbonize the engine where you connect this tool and flow fluid via vacuum to the intake manifold and cylinders. The tool would not pass any fluid and I had to disassemble it piece by piece to find the problem. I found that there is a check valve at the bottom of the cylinder which was stuck closed. I ended up simply pushing a metal rod through the cylinder bottom hole to work it free. After reassembly the tool worked great for decarbonizing and cleaning the fuel injectors.You have to supply your own air quick connect fitting at the air inlet. The tool has a quick connector on the fluid outlet and connectors on each end of the hose. The tool comes with a quick connector to 1/4" FNPT adapter nipple and can probably be rigged up to connect to the engine intake and fuel line, but I bought the OTC 7666 Decarbonizing Adapter to do my work with.

I purchased this product after watching Scotty Kilmer demo it on a fuel rail, however not all engines are created equal, I looked every where on my Toyota 4.7L V8 and could not locate the "test port" as Scotty called it. So, after doing some research to see how I could hook this thing up I read the book that came with it and I needed the banjo bolt adapter for my engine. I thought no problem I'll just type in the part number and order it well it wasn't that easy that part number was nonexistent standalone however, you could purchase the kit that includes way more than you need for $700 which I thought was absolutely ridiculous or you could return it and buy the Aerosol can that spray directly into the pcv for $50. I opted to do option $50, the return process however, not very pleased I paid $288 for this tool and my refund amount is $195 not only that I paid $25 to ship it back. So if the return policy states a restocking fee, and a return shipping fee is required, it was not made known to me. I have reached out to the seller but currently have had no response. I would not recommend this product if you own a Toyota evidently the test port does not exist and for $1,000 all in I could just take it to a mechanic and probably have a better cleaning job done.Update:The seller was able to work with me in this purchase and I ended up receiving a full refund just be advised if you think you can hook this up the way scotty did just make sure your vehicle has a test port otherwise you may be subject to restocking fees.

This is a well made tool i would recommend this tool to everybody execellent tool for the job easy to use for everyone who buys the tool or even thinks about buying the tool you will need to purchase the connectors separately or if you have a fuel pressure gauge setup lying around just take the hose off of it and ad it to the fuel cleaner tool then you are ready to go.

The tool was easy to use with the help of the instructions the otc manual it also provided a lot of info on different makes and models. The tool never leaked but the only set back that the tool had was the air regulator valve didn’t work efficiently no matter how much I increase the valve it never made enough pressure besides that the tool was okay.

This is the tool to clean fuel injection systems. It works (connects) with my other fuel pressure test kit and allows the introduction of the fuel cleaner to the fuel rail. If you are a automotive technical you will appreciate the OTC brand.Glad I bought this item

I'm a service technician and we have similar OTC fuel injector kits in our shop. OTC is good stuff for special service tools and they come with a price. Having your own beats looking for the tool or waiting for it. If your like me and have your own fuel fittings for OTC then this tool is the way to go. I had to remove one of the valve cores so the fuel would actually go through. Other than that it works.

I followed the operating instructions provided, and at step 12, when I slowly adjusted the regulator by turning clockwise to bring the pressure to the vehicle specification, at some point, the gauge went from zero to 52 PSI within a second, and stayed at that position. I undid everything, and even with the top cap removed and zero pressure, the gauge still reads 52 PSI. Clearly a defective gauge. Not impressed.

plug into air line and added pressure. the gauge is stuck, notice the otc pressure display is pushing outward causing the needle to get stuck, even back off the pressure and release all the air inside the gauge does not return back to 0 psi. there is no support yet, unable to use it at this time, will be update the rating once i get the gauge replacement or i have to return the product.

Well built
