Fellas,
I just wanted to show you all what I have been up to lately. I ended up decarbonizing my engine with water vapor mist. I used a fine mist water sprayer to do mine-a pond fogger would be very ideal for this. Since a picture is worth a thousand words, I thought a video would be even better!:

This is the second time I ran water vapor through my intake. The first time I did it, I used around 8-10 ounces of water. The second time(in this video) I ran a total of about 17oz of water through the intake. My car has around 162K miles on it with original injectors. The car idles, and runs smoother than it did pre-decarbonization. Actually seems like it may have removed some carbon buildup from around the injectors like I experienced before when I removed and cleaned the injectors-of course this time it was done without taking them out!
