Can Idling at 3500 RPM Clean Carbon Deposits?
1 Answers
Idling at 3500 RPM can clean carbon deposits. However, it is not recommended to clean carbon deposits by idling for extended periods. Idling is harmful to the engine: Especially when the RPM exceeds 4000, if the car is not moving and there is no airflow to cool the engine, it can negatively impact the engine. Cleaning carbon deposits: Cleaning carbon deposits is a relatively lengthy process. Maintaining medium to high RPM operation allows the engine to intake more air with smoother airflow, which can help clean carbon deposits. However, when carbon buildup is severe, it may not be completely removed. This method is more suitable for regular driving to prevent severe carbon buildup in the engine. Therefore, cars should not always operate at low speeds.
