Does the Fuel System Need Cleaning?
1 Answers
Fuel system cleaning is necessary for the following reasons: 1. Fuel inherently contains colloids, impurities, dust, and moisture, which can form sludge deposits in areas like the fuel tank and fuel lines over time; 2. Carbon deposits and sediments can clog fuel injector needle valves and valve orifices, impairing the performance of precision components in the fuel system, leading to poor fuel injection, inadequate atomization, and reduced power performance; 3. Carbon deposits and sediments may cause intake valves to close improperly, resulting in decreased cylinder pressure or even backfiring, leading to unstable engine idling, increased fuel consumption, and worsened exhaust emissions. It is recommended to periodically use high-quality throttle or intake system cleaners to remove colloids and deposits from the throttle body and intake pipes, as well as carbon buildup from intake valves, combustion chambers, and the three-way catalytic converter, restoring normal compression ratio.
