What if it runs cleaner with those parts? what if it passes sniffing? it doesn't matter.
This speaks to the motivation behind it.

My buddy sprays a bunch of carb/throttle body cleaner through it and revs the crap out of it while he does so, changes the oil and plugs, takes it in and passes every time. When he was setting up a deal for a guy to buy a house(he's a realtor), but the guy needs to sell a car before he could do the deal. Car would not pass, Brett does his thing, it passes, guy sells car and buys the place. He was joking about going the extra mile to sell a house.
