## Description

Product description Genuine RKX Intake Valve Walnut Blaster Cleaning Adapter compatible with most VW & Audi TSI TFSI vehicles The RKX walnut cleaning adapter is designed to aid in the removal of carbon buildup on TSI / TFSI intake valves.

Walnut blasting drastically speeds up the process and will leave you with a cleaner valves! Compatible with FSI, TFSI, TSI gasoline engines 2.0T 2005 - 2016 4.2L 2006 - 2014 5.2L 2008 - 2011 3.0T 2010 - 2017 Designed to work with a vacuum hose .9" - 1.25" Designed to work with blaster .4" - .5" The RKX walnut blaster has been extensively designed and tested to work with a wide range of engines. The adapter is made from extremely durable plastic and is designed to hold up to the rigors of a shop environment. Before Carbon coked intake valves rob performance, and fuel economy Cleaning Cleaning the intake valves has never been easier. The RKX adapter helps contain the mess and speed up the process. After Clean valves will help restore original performance and fuel economy. RKX was founded by mechanics who saw a problem with the repair parts industry.

Review: It is a good fit for my TSI engine and made the cleaning process easier - I used this adapter to carbon clean the intake valves of my 2010 Passat's TSI engine and it worked really well. The adapter required some pressure to fully seat. RKX's listing pictures show a shop vac adapter connected directly to their blaster adapter but that limits how you can angle the blaster. Instead I used a flexible 1" hose at an angle and then connected that to a shop vac adapter. I used the white ceramic snub nose adapter that comes with the Harbor Freight blaster and switched to a DIY wand I could insert into the blaster adapter hole to get closer and tackle problem areas like the back of some valves. To clean problem areas you may need to blast precisely on them. It took me 3 afternoons to carbon clean all the intake valves. I reused the walnut fine grit several times. One cylinder's intake valves were much harder to clean than the other cylinders and I don't know why. If you want more detail I documented my carbon cleaning experience in passatworld B6 Garage thread "My notes for walnut blasting the intake valves".

Works great

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The proper tool makes for an easy execution. This is the proper tool.
*by D***! on September 13, 2020*

This worked perfectly. It actually "snapped" in, it was such a perfect fit, and made an excellent seal (2014 VW CC 2.0). While the snap won't hold it there unattended while you are blasting, it confirms a nice seal, and you just hold it in place with one hand, while working your blast gun with the other. All in all, maybe a teaspoon of media got away from the vacuum, and fell down along the machined ridge just below the intakes. The whole process was made easier by this adaptor, which can be expected when you have the right gear. I've seen others use a jury rig setup, with towels and hand cut pieces of cardboard and plastic. And all that just doesn't makes sense if you can get your hands on one of these. As blasting the carbon is a regular maintenance, recommended every 30k miles, you may as well own this IMO. I posted a before and after of blasting just for the heck of it. Uncertain if this will work on my 1.8 Jetta head as well, as the port may be a different size.
