    Interesting,

    I never had the opportunity to observe any of that on my turbine.

    I did however observe mist clouds of fuel on occasion upstream of the intake on non turbo'ed engines. Incredible.

    What kind of RPM's was your turbine turning?

    Mine I never measured but read they would run up to 90 - 120 thousand typically.

    powerabout,

    I never saw any evidence of cylinder wear from the steam cleaning, but it did

    eliminate carbon build-up completely.
