Would you like to take a wild guess what one of the primary byproducts of an internal combustion engine is?
A small amount of water is not a death sentence for the rings or the bearings...that is exactly what the PCV system is designed to take care of. If enough water gets past the rings to cause an issue, you've got a lot bigger problems. What is a death sentence is coolant...the acids formed as a result of mixing coolant and oil will etch the rings fairly quickly.
If you're really worried about it, time the cleaning with an oil change.

Damn you're good.
Let me know when you're planning on steaming, we'll have a party.
Of course it's easier to do on my car. Spraying with a pump sprayer used for misting plants works great. 
Would this really be viable???
I mean. How many cars have you guys owned that needed to have the pistons steam cleaned? Is it a 15 year old car thing?
This is my 1st supra. but I have driven nissan all my life.
I ask because I have never heard of anyone going to this extent to clean things.
I'm not trying to be upity. I'm trying to learn.

Nah...most of what I post is pure BS
You see all kinds of claims by various products (additives) out there...95% is pure BS. That was kinda the whole point of what I said...good ole H2O works as well or better than just about anything else (for cleaning the combustion chamber), short of yanking the head off.
This will work on any car and carbon build-up in the combustion chambers is never good.
Need is based on whether you want to take the car to a mechanic or do preventative maintenance...your call.

I didn't mean it like that, man.
Sorry it came across that way.
I get the concept. I see where it's plausible.
Maybe "viable" was the wrong word.
My bad.
edit. I just finished putting all of that together and putting 10 miles on it.
I'm hoping I'm good to go till I find a solid swap.
