Why?
The reason to use SF is to remove grunge from the inside of the intake runners and burn off the carbon buildup from intake valves and combustion chambers. Your engine should be pretty clean still.

i thought it would clean out the intake manifold...and the other fuel components. those still have 200,000 + miles on them.
