decarbonizing lo if u mean to clean the combustion chamber...

the easier n simple way is to get it from zth seller directly if u not sure wat ingredient/chemical to use.

start you car engine,
rev the engine how high is up to you...
then spary some mist of water at the carb intake...
do this for few times...your cyclinder head will be clean off carbon...

it's call gum deposit.usually from a cooked cylinder oil(this is what happen if
u guy's don't change the engine oil regularly as recomended by the manufacturer).
usually we scrape it off.i wonder whether the acid from paint remover can clear
it off?
