I'd like to thank all who responded to my recent question about decarbonizing combustion chambers. I have compiled all your responses into a file for later reference.... up until the train of thought shifted to installing airplane engines in cars which, although interesting, got fairly far afield from my original question. The problem of dieseling was not so much in relation to my XPAG motors, both of which I've converted for operation with unleaded fuel. Having the heads removed, I naturally removed all carbon deposits before refitting the heads, although I never thought to use old shillings to do the scraping. The problem is in a recently acquired '59 Corvette and although I realize the preferred method would be to scrape off deposits with an old shilling, I don't feel like pulling both heads and scraping those big pistons until some bigger problem demands removing the heads. Until then, I shall try various additives - especially interesting was the suggestion about the GM product: Top Engine Cleaner: Once again, my appreciation for all the good tips and expert advice! Let's keep wearing those roads out. David TC 3896 Your use of Yahoo! Groups is subject to the Yahoo! Terms of Service.
