i would say do it, put 1/3 in the tank, 1/3 in the oil, and suck up the other 1/3 into a manifold vacuum line that feeds all cylinders, but do that part very slowly little by little, too much at once and you can hydrolock your engine. after you have completed sucking it into the manifold, have someone in car give it a rev and then turn off the car, let it sit for 10 minutes or so to let the solution soak the valves and the cylinder bore, start it up, take it for a ride for a good 10 min cycling through 1-4000 rpm and your set
I've heard it can plug up a catalytic converter if your not careful to make sure the car is warmed up at temperature before you do it.
I've done it to quite a few of my vehicles - I'm not sure if its yielded any results - I really just like making a big ass cloud of smoke for a few minutes
not completely, if you suck a bottle of it through a vac line it will clean up some stuff. i've personally done it on a car that would not pass CO% emissions and as a last resort i tried seafoam and the car passed.
There's better ways to clean your engine than putting corrosive chemicals in it.
I'm interested. What else is out there?
