Better question - How does one prevent the carbon buildup on direct injection systems? I know that with port injection, using Techron and Lucas in the fuel (top tier fuel), prevents the buildup. I have never had to have my valves cleaned on any of my 8 BMW's over 45 yrs and 1 500, 000 kms using those products.
These products won't work with direct injection however, since the intake valves never see the Techron or equivalent liquid.
