Does nitrous...
 
Does nitrous clean the motor out, I sprayed a half bottle threw it and it seems to run smoother now? The car loves the stuff... :yes:

Oh yea it will clean out a lot of crud, piston rings, ring lands, valves, and rods sometimes ;)

LOL ,I guess it would if not set up right. On the other hand, after spraying my first couple of times, the next time out on motor I ran my best ever NA pass. Could have been better air, but I think the nitrous cleaning had something to do with it also. :D

N2O does not break down into nitrogen and oxygen until it reaches about 600*F, so its unlikely that it would affect anything up to and including the intake valve. Its sure going to clean your plugs off if you have a "too hot" plug... but that might include removing the ground strap as well.

Shell is currently advertising "nitogen fortified" gasoline. How would a gas that doesn't burn "fortify" gasoline? When you check into what they are actually selling, its a nitrogen-based detergent compound (additive) that is supposed to clean the valves..... misleading advertising at best.
