I have seen that as a problem with carbureted engine, but fuel injected 
typically if running correctly stays pretty clean from what I have seen. 
there is some build up, but minimal. Not too sure how long the lens for 
the laser would stay clear to keep it operable. Seems like a viable 
idea. You may have much less build-up if you have a more consistent and 
complete fuel burn. I suppose they could be using special coatings to 
prevent buildup from becoming a problem.
