I just rechecked my Intake Manifold with a wire-tie (for Garbage Bags) and it
wasn't as bad as I thought. Hard to see something jet black and unreflective!

I may have less of a cleanout problem than I thought.

Question - this Carbon comes from the exhaust. Are all 3 cyl Metro EGR ports
carbon plugged? Is this a normal problem or will it clear out once the
engine is running properly?

I would suspect that once Carbon is in those particular EGR passageways, there
is nothing to clean them out after that.

Should one take the EGR off and run a ream thru there on an annual basis?

Seems like bad designing to me.

Raining today - cold wind. Did nothing.
