After reading the online ad, I wondered if this product is only for carbed engines. The fine print says to avoid hoses, which I assume is also meant to include the hoses from the air cleaner to the throttle body.

Which brings up a problem. Disconnecting the hose to the throttle body and running the engine will result in a CEL or very poor running engine because the MAF/AMM is not being used. Probably even worse for a turbo engine.

I might try it on my 1967 220, the carb does need cleaning and the cylinders are full of carbon deposits.
