    underhood paint that holds up, for firewall and inners, etc.

    water decarbonizing???

    Well I never tried it on TBI engines but I did it many times on some of my old school rides it does work . One thing to make sure is just a slow trickle while the engine is running. It will cough and "gag" but it will (assuming carbon was an issue) clean it.
