You need to read this from Don.
Re: Carbon deposit on prop (rangerguy)
Thank you very much for the threads and advice.
Why does this happen and what happens if you do not add quickleen (besides your propeller turning even more black)?

If you don't use the Quickleen, the carbon can build up on the top of your pistons and after so much build up, a hot spot will develop and pretty soon you will burn a piston. Why does it happen? Thank the EPA and oil company's for putting out a poor quality of gas.

Additionally, you can expect decreased spark plug life, carbon fouling of the direct injectors, and eventual loss of performance. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/wink.gif

Explanations are much appreciated! http://xs-s.com/zf/images/smile/emthup.gif
Will make sure to follow your directions from now on.
