Does the Engine Need Cleaning?
1 Answers
Cleaning the engine is necessary. Increased fuel consumption: The engine's power is not as strong as when it was new, fuel consumption increases, engine noise becomes louder, and exhaust emissions differ significantly from when the car was new. In such cases, the engine needs cleaning. Carbon deposits: After fuel enters the combustion chamber and burns with gasoline, it forms gummy deposits that harden into carbon buildup on the intake valves, piston tops, piston ring grooves, combustion chambers, spark plugs, and other parts. Additionally, during engine operation, fuel and lubricating oil that enters the combustion chamber do not burn completely. The unburned fuel undergoes high temperatures and oxidation, forming gummy deposits that adhere to component surfaces and then turn into carbon buildup under high temperatures. Unstable engine idle: Although these carbon deposits seem minor, they can cause significant harm. They often lead to valves not sealing properly, reduced engine performance, and a series of issues such as rough acceleration, unstable idle, stalling, shaking, and knocking.
