Who is going to try this first ?

[UltraWomble]

I'll fetch the garden hose pipe and fire up the diesel....

[Forty-two]

Ah, if you watch the vids he advises against a hose pipe!

 

Just a thought, if you used some cilit bang, would it work or would it be bang and the engine is gone?

Ooh, a sidevalve engine. I'd have thought the piston is clean because it's not been firing.

 

Coke would be a cheaper alternative to clit bang as it's got most of the same ingredients.

 

...and guess how much coke I've drunk since I found that out...

This would appear to be the same dizzle engine as my Tipo

 

 

And VW TDi

 

 

Will I be doing this on my Fiat or Boring approaching 1/4 million miles?

I don't think so.

[Bren]

Nothing new.

 

K series are self cleaning - they use coolant under pressure to decarbonise the piston crowns.
