Honestly, just suck some Auto Tranny Fluid into your intake. I'm sure it's about the same thing.
People have used ATF to clean thier combustion chambers (piston or rotary) for decades.

Re: Honda top engine cleaner? (martini)
are you smoking crack the atf goes in with the oil. or put one cap full in each spark plug hole. this way you clean combustion chamber and motor block.

I just used some carbon cleaner from a local store. I had to place it in through the intake manifold and continue to rev up the motor until the cleaning process was finished. I just had to do it in the middle of nowhere and the carbon just smokes right out thru the exhaust. SMOKE EVERWHERE.

And yes, it's $4 plus shipping..but you'll find ATF for cheaper than that. Whatever..if you feel more comfortable buying something that says it's made for what you want to do, then go for it.

Re: Honda top engine cleaner? (martini)
How much would you use at a time. Do I just pull the inttake tube off or put the valve cover breather hose in the bottle?

It DOES NOT go into your oil. Just pull the line off the check valve that is between the intake manifold and your brake booster. Stick the hose into the bottle and have someone rev the engine at 3K and hold it. The engine will suck up the ATF and do the rest. But like martini said, make sure it's dark or no one is around. You'll get tons of smoke out the exhaust. All you really need to use is about a 1/4 to 1/2 quart of ATF.
