What motor are you talking about? As i just said in a different post there is a lot of us here that can help you but you got to help us help you by giving as much info on what motor you got as you can. If you got a model number and description of the motor that would be about 90 percent of the info that we need to help ya out.

I just gotta ask.
why would you wish to spray a solvent into a running engine?
if the carbs are dirty inside no amount of external cleaning will help. if they are dirty the only method is to remove,dissasemble and clean.

It will clean the carb bore real well. Unfortunately that's not where the problem lies. The cleaner needs to get to the internals of the carb. There are only two ways in: 1) mixed with the fuel or 2) remove and disassemble the carbs for cleaning. #2 is the best.

usually by the time the gunk is cleaned you have detonated a piston from lean running, but its your motor

Instead of taking a chance of ruining the motor just take the carb. apart and clean it
