I used a syringe to squirt about 1/2 tsp of 5w30 into each cylinder. It didn't start up right away, so I let it sit for a little bit, came back, and it started right up. It burned off mostly gas for a minute or so, but now runs fine, with no smoke (must have put just the right amount in there). I'm doing an oil change tonight, just in case gas or cleaner that got past the cylinder seals mixed in there, but other than that it is running well.

It's funny, because I saw the oil in the cylinder suggestion when I was searching at the beginning, but I thought there was no way cleaner got into the cylinders, because I always had 'em plugged. My best guess is that there was cleaner still left in the corners of the UIM, so that got sucked in, and the rest is history.

Thanks a ton!
