Did this valve clean yesterday. It is the easiest thing in the world! Thanks a million to dsire on vwvortex for posting this! This is for a VW/audi 2.0 liter FSI engine but could be easily adapted to others. Brilliant!

I sucked in fluid for about 1 second, let engine continue to idle a bit, and then revved and held at 2000 rpm until all white smoke stopped. Then repeated until out of fluid. I changed the oil after letting it run awhile after that. This is a super easy way to deal with valve/intake deposits plus you can do it really easily right before you change the oil.
Cost:
1) hose - 1/4" ID x 1/2" ODiameter x 24" $1.99 at autozone
2) Basketball needles $1.99 for 3
3) 1 bottle lubro-moly valve cleaner (ventil sauber) $6.38 at IPD volvo parts place, or here:
