I change oil every 7K....use a pint of water in the intake thru an old dish soap bottle...keeping the revs up around 2K. Then add 1 pint kerosene to the oil...run at fast idle for 15 mins...then new oil and filter.
If you use a fuel additive like acetone or iso or ??...you can improve combustion and reduce carbon buildup.

I'd like to think that people might open their eyes at some point... instead, I find it more and more likely that I'll just close mine.
