Decarbonizing Your Engine With Water -EricTheCarGuy

I get asked all the time about using Seafoam or other products to clean an engine. Granted, those products if used correctly do have their place but with something as simple as a cup of water you can decarbonize your engine. The thing is DON'T USE TOO MUCH! You can actually damage your engine if you put too much in so be careful. That said, on a fully warmed up engine a couple of squirts of water in the engine can break up carbon deposits in your engine. Just before I rebuilt the carburetor on the Ford I decided to perform this procedure and make a video about it. It's a cheap effective way to clean your engine. Like I said though, don't use too much or you'll be putting an engine in.Camera: Brian KastThe best place for answers to your automotive questions: http://www.ericthecarguy.comRelated videos.Cleaning Throttle Bodies: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41yFXjibtLYSolving Performance Problems 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rsGTeWayqIUSolving Performance Problems 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sAKwCzUE_9MRe Performance Problems: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_vAJi5rLMGYDiagnosing a Catalytic Converter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9VZ5K8n5jj0Related articles.Idle issues: http://www.ericthecarguy.com/faq/solving-automotive-idle-problemsPerformance issues: http://www.ericthecarguy.com/faq/solving-automotive-performance-issuesGetting Better MPG: http://ericthecarguy.com/faq/finding-and-fixing-the-causes-of-poor-mpgDiscussion about this Video: http://www.ericthecarguy.com/kunena/18-The-EricTheCarGuy-Video-Forum/52276-decarbonizing-your-engine-with-water#103995The best place for answers to your automotive questions: http://www.ericthecarguy.comETCG FAQ Page: http://www.ericthecarguy.com/faqEricTheCarGuy code lookup: http://www.ericthecarguy.com/obd-code-lookupFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/EricTheCarGuy?fref=tsTwitter: https://twitter.com/EricTheCarGuyGoogle+: https://plus.google.com/100195180196698058780/postsInformation on Premium Membership: http://www.ericthecarguy.com/premium-content-streaming-etcg-contentStay DirtyETCGDue to factors beyond the control of EricTheCarGuy, it cannot guarantee against unauthorized modifications of this information, or improper use of this information.  EricTheCarGuy assumes no liability for property damage or injury incurred as a result of any of the information contained in this video. EricTheCarGuy recommends safe practices when working with power tools, automotive lifts, lifting tools, jack stands, electrical equipment, blunt instruments, chemicals, lubricants, or any other tools or equipment seen or implied in this video.  Due to factors beyond the control of EricTheCarGuy, no information contained in this video shall create any express or implied warranty or guarantee of any particular result.  Any injury, damage or loss that may result from improper use of these tools, equipment, or the information contained in this video is the sole responsibility of the user and not EricTheCarGuy.
