    Greetings to all,
    I have a 98 Accord EX V6. Had the intake ports cleaned and bored out per the
    TSB at ~45,000 miles, no charge. Well...at 88,500 the check engine light
    went on again, and the code was related to the intake ports (again) and the
    EGR. I spoke to the tech himself who seemed very knowledgeable, said this
    happens commonly at ~90k miles. Ports cleaned and EGR replaced to the tune
    of $265.
    My question to the forum is: do any of those after market "valve cleaners"
    etc reduce the frequency of this port clogging that is inherent in the
    Accord V6 engines. If so, then what products are good?/
    Thanks!!
    Matthew
