De-Carbonisation. Myth or Reality? 200

Chris,

I used to do the de-carbon treatment using water all the time when I did driveability repairs for Ford. This worked for pre-detination and engine knocking due to carbon buildup.

On cars without a air meter I would actually take a 20oz bottle and fill it with water and while holding the RPM's at around 2500 I would slowly pour the water into the intake. You need to keep reving the engine and don't pour so much that it stalls the engine. This sometimes would work miracles and I never had a bad experience while doing this.

With an AMM you would probably need to go through a vac. line into the intake.


DISCLAIMER.....What you do is your by your own will and I am not responsible for any damage YOU might cause.

Good luck.
