OK so My 8 has 75,000 and I have a feeling that this was never done to it. My 8 is down right now cause I'm changing the ignition coils, plugs, and wires because I was having some power loss problems. I'm still waiting for my wires to get here from mazdatrix which wont be til wed or thurs. Do you guys think I could do this cleaning and then let it sit until I can get everything put back together or should I just wait and do it once I get the ignition system back up and running. I didn't know if the cleaner would dry up or cause damage to the engine by sitting in it for a day or so. Thanks for your help!

Just wait until ur wires come.

2 days without a car shouldnt be able to kill you

Yea I just didn't know if there is any benefit to letting the cleaner soak in the housing. I'll just wait til thursday to do the cleaning. Oh another question. Should I put all the ignition stuff in the car adn put the intake system back together and make sure everything is running ok before I take the intake back out to undo the eccentric shaft connector and do the cleaning. That way I know the car is running properly before I spray all that cleaner into the housing? Hopefully this will restore my power loss problems. My 8 getting zoom cleaned, new coils, wires, and plugs. She should run like new. Hopefully

i would suggest putting everything back together to make sure your ignition system is running properly, besides, you have to have the engine warmed up for the cleaning procedure. you shouldnt have to rip out your intake again, as the eccentric shaft sensor is down towards the bottom so just jack the car up and get in there.
