I may have heard of that once before but never thought of it actually working.. If you want to clean the inside as well as intake and fuel tank,lines, injectors... I would suggest seafoam.. Place about 1/4 in your crank case(oil), another 1/4-1/2 in the intake and the rest in the fuel system. But remember this when adding any kind of cleaning solution in crank case, oil must be changed no more than 100 miles after adding.. If not youll cause more harm the good.. I repeat MUST change oil.. Other than that nothing to worry about. Just read whats on the can or watch videos online of others and how the do it.
