knocking off carbon deposits w/o removing heads?

Anyone know of a good product or trick to do this?

I was thinking of misting water over my TBI unit like some people do to their carbs, but I'm not too sure if it'll mess anything up.

Use ATF. You have to feed it into your running engine but when it gets into your motor, it will cause the deposits to crack and move freely out your exhaust... There are places on the web that better describe this, but drizzling it or spraying a mixture if ATF/gas into carb/TBI inlet will do the trick... Same principal as the stuff you can buy...
