Hello,
I have a 2011 Kia Sorento 197,473 miles with code 420 I put the klean strip GREEN version and the car started to shake and stop on me. The car seemed to have a low crank start if that makes any sense before the codes.
I rescanned now 0304 code is reading.
Please advise
Turn off your CAPS LOCK please. Use your browser zoom instead. Thanks.

who said anything about paint thinner?
Paint thinner is way too thick and oily. It contains a cocktail of hydrocarbons with boiling points that are relatively high. I wouldn't be surprised if your engine has a hard time getting rid of it, and it ends up contaminating everything.
MAYBE I POURED THE WRONG THING IN
I think you need to be more careful. Lacquer thinner is much lighter and evaporates right away.
Hopefully the paint thinner burns off soon.
also, CAN YOU PLEASE TURN OFF YOUR CAPS LOCK. I DON'T LIKE BEING SHOUTED AT.
Thanks.
THANK YOU FOR THE INFO.. I WILL MIST CERTAINLY TURN THEM OFF WHEN MY NEW READERS ARE DELIVERED TO AMERICA'S BEST.. IF I TURN THEM OFF NOW I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SEE..
I'M NOT SHOUTING AT ANYONE
If you can see all the other text on this website, then you can see your own. Turn it off please.
Klean Strip Green is a paint remover loaded with extremely strong solvents that are designed to dissolve any soft material they come in contact with. Even the paint thinner is designed to dissolve oil based paints. It is not for use in a motor vehicle, and at this point, you don't know how badly it may have damaged your fuel pump, filter, injectors, EVAP system and any other fuel handling parts. I would suggest running a couple of tanks of top tier gas through the system to see if it clears things up.
DID SCOTTY SAY PUT THINNER IN TO CLEAN OUT A CATALYTIC CONVERTER? 🤦🏼♀️
I PICKED THE WRONG ITEM UP IT SHOULD'VE BEEN LACQUER THINNER😭😭😭🤦🏼♀️
The video where Scotty uses lacquer thinner was nearly 12 years ago and he stopped using it and recommending it shortly thereafter.
THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH
In an attempt to fix my p0420 code, I poured a gallon of lacquer thinner to half a tank of gas. No driveability issues. How do I assess for damage?
