SeaFoam
The two stories I have are:
My mechanic had an old tractor that would not start because
of sticky valves and other stuff. Used a can in the oil and cranked to mix it
up and within a week was able to get her started.
A friend has an old Chevy van he uses in business. Carb was
gummed up and giving him problems. Two shops recommended a rebuild; one shop
told him to stall out the engine while pouring Seafoam down it's throat and let
her set over night. Carb worked fine the next day but a bunch of smoke!!!

This sounds good. Has anyone else tried this with sea
foam?

I've heard that Sea Foam does a good job.

A second vote for Sea Foam. The stuff works great at
cleaning excess carbon buildup. I use it from the lawn mower to the daily
drivers. Comes in a white and red can at the local auto parts stores and
costs about $5 IIRC. Unplug your power brake booster hose at the booster
and put it in the can of Sea Foam while the engine is running. The vacuum
will suck up the Sea Foam into the intake. Let it take down around 1/3
can or so slowly and then bury the hose into the can and the engine will
sputter and die. At this point, reconnect the power brake booster hose to
the booster. Let it sit for around 1/2 hour then start her up. If
you have carbon buildup you will be engulfed in a cloud of white smoke
until it burns off. I always have a can in the garage right next to the
can of PB Blaster.
