Aircraft engines used to have water injection so it might help if the amount was metered precisely. The GM recommended product looks to be a safer choice but why not pull the head and clean the chambers and valves directly?

If the valve is only sticking occasionally why not try adding Molybdenum Disulphide to the oil? This seems to work for all sorts of problems.

Good luck.
