1. A spark plug needs to be removed versus a simple spray into the air cleaner.
2. Spraying a fluid directly into a cylinder could damage the cylinder.
3. Only one cylinder gets fuel, so the engine my not fully start resulting in a marginal test.
4. The engine can be kept running for short intervals by repeated intake sprays.

I meant to say if the plugs were out to spray the cylinders. Not fill the cylinders but a shot spray. I am not in total agreement on damaging the pistons but in the MAF would distribute evenly if the plugs were already put back in. I've done it both ways with no damage at all.

AS it turns out, 3 of the four fuel injectors were plugged and not firing, we pulled the injectors and they were sent to a fuel injector guy, who bench tested and cleaned them, now the car is running better than ever.
