Talking Intake Manifold clean up

I was thinking of taking off my intake manifold and clean it from carbon deposit, for more free flow air, is it worth doing it.

PCV gases that get recycled do gum up intake manifolds over 100k+ FYI! With the addition of EGR's as well, aother carbon killer!

I use this stuff, and its cheap!
My many shops charge about $100 for fuel injection service. This stuff is less then $20, and you run one of the bottles
thru the intake system, which cleans up your intake manifold.

not worth the trouble. no need to do it either.

just keep your intake filter clean and it should not be any major deposits.
