There are many companies with this kind of product now. There are even
generic versions. Some are very easy to use. I've seen a NAPA brand version
that is a aerosol can that screws into a valve/gauge set. You remove the
fuel line from your cars FI and replace it with the line from the
Valve/Gauge set and run the car off the can of cleaner until it runs out.
Now the insides of you engine are (supposedly) clean.
I think this is going to become one of those services that every corner
garage is going to what to offer, including the Quick Oil change guys. It
takes no brains to do, is very hard to mess up, takes about 15 minutes to do
and is almost ALL profit!
