ATF concerns
Hey, I wass thinking about doing the ATF trick to my 7s and I got to thinking: If ATF will foul the plugs and possibly clog the cat, wouldn't it just redeposit a fresh layer of carbon over the inside of the engine when you start it up?
I heard that performing the ATF trick with Amsoil powerfoam instead will accomplish the same thing without fouling plugs etc.
Anybody have any ideas??

A better substance to use would be Marvel's Mystery Oil. It's sold in a bright red bottle and was developed long ago as a super/turbo charger lubricant. It is designed to be burned and burns much cleaner than ATF. I use it as an oil additive in my 1st gen. Very good stuff.

if you let a carbon coated rotor soak in ATF, see how well it breaks up the carbon. It doesnt do a very good job. Your much better off burning it off. Thats why the tach goes 8k =]
