I just hit my ports with some SeaFoam that comes in the aerosol can(called Deep Creep). I just sprayed a little bit, rubbed it with my finger, then sprayed a little more and called it good. I really don't see a need or benefit to have them totally clean...

Berrymans B-12 will remove ALL carbon and oil from ANYTHING!

Spray it on carbon buildup, let it dry then simply use a vacume to suck it all out of the port.
It will turn all flaky if you spray it gently then let it dry.
