Oh Sam, don't be so sensitive. There's not a single insult here. I'm just saying we've all heard what you're opinion is, there's no more input...
So you advise people to pour liquid into their intake but think imminent engine death would come from sucking in a bit of water via a vacuum hose?...
You don't pour it into the intake. You find a vacuum line connected to the intake, attach a hose and slowly let it suck at the surface of your...
The piston soak is to try and get the rings to spring out, the cleaning of the piston is a happy side effect.
Hi Ed. Do you use any fuel additives or anything? Why do you clean you have such a clean burning car?
I've seen lots of pictures, many on this site of pistons. Few that had done a piston soak were black all over. Fair point on the water cooled...

How do I rotate the engine? It's in a tight parking spot right now and can't be moved until I put it back together.
No idea if it's at TDC. How do I tell?
I've just pulled the plugs and poured in some marvel mystery oil. Only 1 cylinder filled up, I could hear the others just pouring through. How do...
Update 2. - We drove the car from Oregon to Indiana and then back, for a total of over 5000 miles. No major issues. The only trouble...
