Default GS300/IS250 Intake Valve Carbon Cleaning

I ended up with over 100 video clips and pictures and it took about 40 hours of video editing, but finally I finished it.

Thats awesome! I like the good detail you provided, so others can benefit. Instead of killing their performance or worst killing the engine when that carbon reaches the piston oil control rings.

I finally learned about the oil control ring, and I totally agree.

Sorry I was late to follow your advice on doing more frequent oil change and not go 10K miles, which basically shortens engine life.
I'm starting my 3-5K oil change on all my cars immediately. :-)
