Chojun: I followed 01's method exactly. Our engine oil did not get very dirty, but this engine has had it's oil changed religiously. I am sure there was build up on the valve train, as the settings changed and we had to reset the valves. That process is easier each time you do it, and takes much less time.
Yes the injectors are bolted to the top of the runners, we did not concern ourselves with the fuel seafoam treatment because we took apart and cleaned most of the system.
Lastspec :Yes we rebuilt the power steering pump with the kit, it runs much better, and the clean oil is the real plus I assume. Getting that belt not too tight is a bit of trial and error, for some reason it wants to tighten up a bit. They want to run looser than you expect, other wise you can hear the pump a bit.
We had a Honda dirt bike in storage for the winter that always had noisy valves, I started it up and it was running a bit rough on old fuel and the always noisy valves were ticking. I seafoamed the engine oil and the started it up and added a bit of seafoam to the gas tank. The engine quickly started running very smooth, and after 10 minutes warm-up, presto, those valves went quiet. Another testament to that stuff.
