Default Carbon cleaning

Recently I've used the cnc carbon cleaning kit because I've had rpm fluctuations with no code. I sprayed the cleaner through the brake booster vacuum line and everything was okay except, I noticed that a clear fluid which I think may be the cnc fluid is leaking from somewhere above the transmission. I haven't done the highway drive yet and I'm waiting on the heat soaking process but I noticed my rpms were still fluctuating. Any ideas? My educated guess is my rpm jumps arent from carbon but from a vacuum leak or a bad intake manifold and that's where the fluid is leaking from.

The fluid you're seeing is probably the AC drain dripping on the floor.

Check the purge valve and, lines for cracks.
