The use of a VERY small amount of water poured into the intake is an old-time wrench trick for decarbonization. I have actually seen a guy do it with varsol as well, but let's just say I stood well back. HOwever, I can confirm the varsol worked like a charm (it was a Mazda gas engine). VW TDIs from the Gen2 onward do actually have a chronic intake crud accumulation problem, particularly automatics that never see much highway use. mac
