The Subie Bros Intake Valve Cleaning Adapter mounts on top of the cylinder head on the intake valve port which is secured by the adapter lockdown bolt. You can then attach your shop vac and use the side ports in insert the media blaster wand attached to your media blaster and perform the walnut blasting service. You must make sure the valves are closed when using the kit.
NOTE: Walnut blasting is an advanced maintenance procedure and when done incorrectly can cause damage to your engine. We always recommend having your car worked on by trained and knowledgable technicians.
