Hey. I'm looking for a gentle and approved method to remove carbon inside the combustion chamber. Ralph | ||

Not sure how bike safe it is but, I would use it. Throttle Body cleaner for cars. Just make sure you get the kind that is O2 safe. | ||

a proven method for boat and classic car owners is to mist a little water into the spark plug hole after getting the motor warmed up. then you crank the starter a few times to clear a bunch of the carbon away. I tried to use a "combustion chamber cleaner" made by Mopar which I am sure is simply a relabeled throttle body cleaner. It burned off some deposit but did not really get it as clean as I wanted. I ended up removing the heads an pistons to throughly clean them. Of course I needed to clean the carbon because the previous owner of the bike had the carbs set up much too rich, and kept the stock exhaust and aircleaner. I was getting a lot of detonation. | ||

I know a bunch of the car guys also use Seafoam. I'm not sure how it would work in a bike but I heard it works great in cars/trucks. |
