W/I and deposits inside engine?????
I have a water/methanol injection kit on my Stage 3 SRT-4. I've been playing with different fuel/water injection formula's to allow me to hold HOM on my Stage 3 computer.
I've found NOS racing formula octane boost to do an excellent job allowing me to hold HOM with 91 octane gas and my w/i setup.
My concern is the possibility's of deposits forming inside of the engine because of the us of mmt in the octane boost.
I have heard that the W/i actually has a benefit of steam cleaning the engine and keeping harmfull deposits from forming, however I've never personally disassembled and engine that used water injection.
Anyone have any inputs on this????
thanks

RE: W/I and deposits inside engine?????
An old mechanics trick...when an engine just started knocking on re-start after cooling off, it could be diagnosed as a piece of carbon that fell off the combustion chamber and on to the top of the piston. This makes one heck of a racket! The fix is/was to poor some water in to the carb and the steam reaction would break up the carbon! So yes, your chambers will run cleaner.
