SeaFoam
At the risk of getting
flamed, it sounds like snake oil to me. I'm real funny about what goes into my
cars and that just does not sound like something I'd want...
This sounds good.
Has anyone else tried this with sea foam?????

A second vote for Sea Foam. The stuff works great at cleaning
excess carbon buildup. I use it from the lawn mower to the daily
drivers. Comes in a white and red can at the local auto parts stores and
costs about $5 IIRC. Unplug your power brake booster hose at the booster
and put it in the can of Sea Foam while the engine is running. The
vacuum will suck up the Sea Foam into the intake. Let it take down
around 1/3 can or so slowly and then bury the hose into the can and the engine
will sputter and die. At this point, reconnect the power brake booster
hose to the booster. Let it sit for around 1/2 hour then start her
up. If you have carbon buildup you will be engulfed in a cloud of
white smoke until it burns off. I always have a can in the garage right
next to the can of PB Blaster.
