With all that carbon on the valves - if it happens - one needs a way to get rid of the carbon. Don't know how you would do this with FI but with a carb, rev the engine as hard as you can, and start drizzling water down the carburetor. Eventually the engine will bogh down but the steam produced internally will loosen and blow out the carbon. If you have a grill and grill staks and the like, soak layers of newspaper, and while the grill is hot, lay the wet paper over the grill surface, and close the lid. Voila!! No more scrubbing that stupid nasty grill. The steam produced will remove most if not all of the carbon from the grill.
