Oh, yeah, the odd-coloured smoke that was coming out of the exhaust was priceless as well. Made it look like I was conducting mad experiments and something went wrong. And it didn't just dissipate, it went down the streey in a sort of brownish-greyish cloud.

But the car ran much better after that



Yeah, I did that with my old Miata, didn't seem to do much good though. Perhaps it just didn't need cleaning.

Going to try it on my SVT one of these days. 127k miles, never been cleaned. I bet it's really yummy in there...
