Not true that it is always bad. That PS fluid is cleaning the hell out of your intake manifold much like Seafoam does.

While I would agree that Seafoam is indeed a solvent & a superior cleaner,
I think you would be amazed at how much gunk/sludge you can take off of parts with PS fluid.

I am guessing that most here don't allow their PS resevoir to become sludge filled.

yes, it can be used as a cleaner but not when it is being BURNED
