Abstract: Revving an engine may be helpful in various contexts, such as when servicing the vehicle. For example, in some types of services, a cleaning agent may be introduced into the intake and surrounding regions of an engine, and the engine may be revved to reduce a likelihood that the cleaning agent might puddle. In some instances, a device can be positioned within a vehicle interior and can be used to automatically rev the vehicle engine by depressing on the vehicle throttle.

Abstract: This application describes a sprayer assembly that can attach to a variety of different types of pre-filled, fluid containers (e.g., non-pressurized fluid containers) for holding the fluid to be sprayed. For example, the sprayer assembly can include a sprayer-head assembly for attaching to a container of fluid, a canister for holding the container of fluid, or any combination thereof In addition, the sprayer assembly can be connected to a variety of different types of pressurized air sources. The sprayer-head assembly can include a nozzle assembly (e.g., fluid uptake tube, valve, and nozzle head), as well as a trigger for actuating the nozzle assembly.

Abstract: A fluid exchanger may exchange a fluid (e.g., coolant) in a reservoir (e.g., vehicle radiator) by removing or withdrawing a first fluid (e.g., old, spent, used, etc.) and by introducing a second fluid (e.g., new, clean, etc.). For example, the fluid exchanger may use a negative pressure, suction, or vacuum to draw the first fluid from the reservoir, and subsequently, the second fluid may be transferred into the reservoir using a negative pressure held in the reservoir, a positive pressure applied to the second fluid, or a combination thereof. The fluid exchanger may also include a multi-purpose, hand-held nozzle that can change an operation of the fluid exchanger from a withdrawing mode to a dispensing mode.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an adapter that is attachable to an engine vacuum source (e.g., insertable into an end of a vehicle-engine vacuum hose) to receive a cleaning fluid from a canister (e.g., aerosol can) and to meter the cleaning fluid into the vacuum source. The adapter may include a vacuum-source insert and a nozzle receiver. In addition, the adapter may include a fluid path between the vacuum-source insert and the nozzle receiver that meters a flow of cleaning fluid.
