And aside from that, I'm wondering if most of it isn't really carbon buildup, since it's not a byproduct of combustion (except maybe a a bit on the intake valves). Most of the stuff accumulating in the intake ports is dirt/grime/gunk, correct?
We all know diesel are direct injection. Did anyone notice we are talking about gasoline direct injection though? We aren't even talking about diesel fuel here, why is it brought up. But while we are on the topic of diesel, carbon buildup happens in diesel engines too.
