One Thing Has Changed... 200

If the valves did have a little carbon on them, this may help that to come off and allow the valves to seal a little better against the valve seats. Also some fluid surely went into the cylinders- may have cleaned up the rings a little bit for better sealing. If a LOT went in there, and sat for a while, its advisable to change your oil.
