From the sound of it, it sounds like this proc. would be very likely to cause clogging in catalytic converters. I am dying to try it, but I am a bit hesitant at the same time...! Like I said, I used to do this on my Camaro using a windex bottle spraying only small droplets of water into the carb, which made a moderate amt of smoke. I wonder if I was using a negligable amount of water that didn't even do the job properly, as I did not get a coffee can 'o sludge out of that 350" motor.

don't do it to your SVT.
just go get 2 bottles of injctor cleaner, wait until you need to get gas, put in the bottles with 10 gal of gas, and drive the crap out of it.
next tank add 1 bottle to a full tank and drive the crap out of it.
that'll clean it up.
driving hard by itself will clean out he engine.

The windex bottle method is the right way to go. Iether that or use Mopar Combustion Chamber cleaner in you engine. I did it on the weekend and white smoke came pouring out for 15 minutes. You can buy it from the Parts dept at your local Chrysler Dealership. It's like $6 a can and work wonders!
The way water works is that when it is subjected to the combustion process, it turns to steam, which the carbon is dislodged by as it heats up and exits the combstion chamber.
I used that process on my father-in-laws Corvette, but I used a 50-50 mix of rubbing alcohol and water and sprayed it into his carb with the aircleaner off.

Why the alcohol??? Also I am thinking of trying this stuff called Chemtrol-B12 which has been around for years. They sell it at pep boys and sound like it would work well. Well OK I already bought it..hehe, but I will try to research it before I dump it in my gas tank...! Originally posted by Aussie SVT:
