Back in a previous life (early 70s), one of my jobs was at Woolco
Automotive. We had a retired Af Colonel bring his vette in every 3
months for service. He would park it outside, I would drain about a
quart out, he would put in a quart of kerosene, and run it for a few
minutes.
That was the cleanest chebby engine I've ever seen. And sweet running
also.
Your mileage may vary. I wouldn't recommend the procedure to anyone
other than a mechanic.

Naptha? isn't that like pouring kerosene in the tank?
not sure I would want to use it now, but may anyway
Most manuals tell you not to use kerosene and stuff like that to clean
engine parts. why?
I actually used kerosene in a Ford straight six (was the worst car I
ever owned), poured it in insead of oil (didn't run it) . valves quit
knocking. :-)
