Chem Dip is usually used for soaking carburetors, and there's some things about is. What you are showing here looks to be the "add to" can. It's for the 5gal Dip Bucket (w/parts basket). Reason I bring this up, is the 5gal bucket only has about 25% of the actual Chemical in it. The top part 75% of the bucket is oil that floats on top to keep it from evaporating. The "add-to" can that you have there is about 75% Chem & 25% (anti-evap) Oil. If you pour the stuff from the top of either of these, it won't do much (because it's just oil) you have to pull the stuff from the bottom to get the "good stuff". The "good stuff" hiding in the bottom of these, actually eats metals. Leave it in there long enough and it starts to eat away the aluminum turning it black. Also you have to Neutralize it when you pull it out of the "Dip" buy washing it all with HOT water, other wise it will etch itself into the aluminum. It's why our wash basin is near the Carburetor bench in the shop, so we can pull a carb out and immediately scrub it down with hot water. That all being said, be very careful with this stuff. Even with full PPE on, and thick rubber sleeved gloves, when I do a Carburetor I smell like carb cleaner for a couple days, and it turns your pee pink. It absorbs into anything made of Carbon, and we all are Carbon Based Lifeforms.

Gas is one most people don’t even bother with, but get enough of that shit soaking into your skin or breathing it in…not good. It’s probably less the fuel itself and more the additives, but regardless, I quit using it to clean shit a long time ago.

Someone else has discovered my magic in a can. I knew about this stuff nearly 15 yrs ago when the can it was delivered in was white at least for the Gunk version, which are probably the same chemical with a different label. I put oil/carbon baked internal engine parts in it and let them sit over night and couldn't believe the as new cast appearance they came out with. Advance auto is where I get mine and usually they have a 25% off coupon floating around somewhere to sweeten the deal, especially now given how the price has increased by about $10 to $28. I would advise sparing use because of how expensive it is. Apply a smaller amount to soften build up on large parts like cylinder heads and use a cheap secondary cleaner and high pressure water spray to finish the job. You don't want to end up paying the same price for cleaning at home that it would cost to just drop the parts off at a shop. A good high pressure washer might do a very effective job and eliminate the use of chemicals altogether for this job and any future for the cost of the machine and low cost for water as the cleaning solution. Another old time favorite for removing a lot of the crud is Easy Off oven cleaner, just be careful not to use it on aluminum with delicate surfaces (cylinder heads, alum blocks) that need microscopic smoothness.

Since the head is off, why not just disassemble it (remove valves) and clean it entirely? I think you'll find significant carbon under the valve heads and/or in the intake/exhaust ports, especially if that engine is is direct injected. With the head disassembled, you'll also have access to inspect for any valve, valve seat or valve guide wear, as well as the head sealing surface for flatness.

SP Tuning, have you read the label on the bottle to discover what chemicals are in that stuff? The warning about alloys is concerning. How much does it affect the alloy whilst removing the carbon? In the old days on bikes (especially two strokes) we used to polish the combustion chambers like a mirror to avoid carbon buildup. We now know that’s potentially somewhat detrimental to the combustion process, but it stops carbon buildup completely if you do it right. By that I mean you first have to totally flatten the surface by removing all imperfections. Only then can you start to polish.

I’ve wondered about cleaning carbon. While build up can be not good, the extra layer of carbon on a piston can improve the thermal efficiency of the engine. It’s an insulator.

Yup, Starting fluid. Have your air ready to blow it and contaminants away. Otherwise, the fluid just moves it to a different place and evaporates. Don't be smokin' either.

When should you look into removing carbo build up? After how many miles/years of driving?

If you are taking apart your engine and see a bunch of buildup, you should take care of it to prevent any hot spots and predetonation in the combustion chamber. I just tore down my 200,000 mile motor, and there was zero carbon buildup in it, so a "do it every xxx miles" rule of thumb isn't a great way to go. Just visually inspect. You can usually rent for free a boroscope camera to stick into your spark plug holes without teqaring everything apart for a quick inspection.

Coat hanger and spray carb cleaner is all you need for most clogged egr ports. Ford 4.2L truck engine you have to remove the plenum. For 4.6 and 5.4 a 9/16 drill bit works nice to dig out what you poke out of the egr holes in the elbow.
