Decarbonization Procedure
I am about to do this...but I am a bit confused on some of the information out there.
Some say to leave the stuff in overnight...some say 12 hours...and the bottle says 15 minutes.
What is a good time to leave it sit in there?

24 hours works best,gives the cleaner a chance to do its stuff :thumbs:
Does this stuff do anything to help the condition of oil burning? I have 20,000 miles.. Will it get better on it's own? Or will I need to have the rings replaced?
I think I will do my 1st startup at night.. this way nobody will see my baby smoking like a Shuttle Liftoff... :D

Re: Decarbonization Procedure (Dual)
Don't forget to change the oil/filter asap after doing this. Dumping all that juice in the top of the engine will contaminate the oil as well as wash out a lot of particulate crud and gradu. It's also a great time for new igniters if they're getting some age on them.
My car smoked but not like the shuttle, looked more like a Vega at a traffic light.
This proceedure is a big help to ping prone engines.
