Make sure engine is WARMED UP. Keep rpms up and slow down or stop the water when engine stumbles or slows down.
Exactly, use common sense.

You need to use a small line and I know guys that have used trany fluid instead of water. Cleans much better. You need to keep the RPM's up over 3k.

how the hell does that work? in theory it would be the same as sucking water through your intake thus causing it to hydrolock
hydrolock needs more water than the volume of your combustion chamber at tdc. any thing less will not hydrolock. Feed water SLOWLY into a warmed up engine running damn near wide open. STOP I SAY AGAIN STOP feeding water if the engine slows or stumble. I take no resposibility for a dumbass atttack.

but how does the water actually clean? my guess is that it works the same way if you steam clean the outsidee of the engine, this way you just steam clean the inside?
