I once saw a mechanic pouring straight water from a Coke © bottle directly
into the carburator a running big block Dodge © engine to clean out the
jets, etc.  He swore it worked far better than any commercial spray.  

He would warm the engine well, then, racing the engine, pour a considerable
stream of water down the throat to the point of almost stalling the engine,
race it again and do it again. He probably would pour 2 - 12 oz bottles
trough the engine and it did seem to improve idle and acceleration.

So who is going to figure out how to BURN water in our beloved (here is the
required content) Vanagons?
