This weekend and next are no good, I've got a certification exam in two
weeks (for work), need to study up. I think I've also got one or two
airbags to light off.
That "burn out the carbon" idea does sound like a lot of fun! You need to
make a video, first line is "Hold ma beer and watch this!".
damn. That sounds like some fun. I might have to do that. Could use
some bbq lighter fluid or something too I guess, put a torch to it.
I have an old airbag here too, could blow some sh*t up and do some fire
and whatnot, maybe even shoot some guns. Max what's your weekend
looking like?

Thats how they clean intake manifolds on TDIs when they get all carboned up.
I'm not sure they use carb cleaner, I think they just heat them until the
carbon catches fire, its all oil soaked anyway...
The videos are pretty cool.

I think you can squirt some carb cleaner in, light it on fire, then feed it
compressed air from a gun until all the crud is burned out. I posted a
video link to it one time.

Yeah I should get that thing and try it out. I have a 12-2 mtg on
Thursday so can't make lunch then but we can get organized at some
time. I guess I should just put it back together and see how it runs,
then deal with the plugs if it doesn't run well.

Have you tested the GPs? I've got an ammeter rigged up with heavy wire so
you can watch the current spike and then drop as they heat up. We should
do lunch, maybe Thursday, and I can loan you the tool.
Drop off the manifold for a hot tank dip to clean it out? I wonder if Star
Motors has one, Si
