We have an engine that chokes up with carbon, its a diesel and difficult to know why. I should really post this in Motoring, but was afraid someone would try this on their car.
"So don't try this at home"
Apparently if you spray a mist of water (Mr Muscle bottle) into the inlet manifold while the engine is running, this will take the carbon off the internal parts?

My first reaction was to think it was an easy way to wreck a good engine, by locking it solid against the water (hydrolock).
But, seemingly it will work just as well on the 2-stroke garden engines? Anyone know if it actually works?
