BG for Carbon Buildup

[Cesco_93]

Does anyone have experience using BG during valve cleaning. It's a harsh chemical only sold to shops. This guy has a pretty awesome video on it. I'd like to hear your thoughts.

I'm at 46k miles so starting to plan how I'm going to go about it.

BG is all about making more profits for service shops. Something "extra" for them to sell to you.

And that somehow means it can't be better than other products?

Can you recommend anything good or better? I'm no mechanic. TIA.

I love how people assume that because someone makes money from something then it doesn’t work.
must mean oil, filters, petrol don’t work cause people make money from these too

I've done tons of carbon cleanings using pb blaster and a pickset. Never felt the need for any solvent that was stronger honestly. No need to spend more when you don't have to. After years though I finally bought a Walnut blaster and now life is easy.

For the manual clean, the guy is using the wrong product from BG.

He's supposed to be using:

the chemical he's using, is an induction cleaning, that is fed into the intake manifold.
