How often should the car throttle be cleaned?
1 Answers
There is no specific regulation on how often to clean the car throttle, mainly depending on the air conditions. Generally, it should be cleaned every 20,000 to 30,000 kilometers; If the vehicle operates in a relatively polluted environment, impurities will quickly accumulate on the throttle, which over time will affect the engine's air intake, requiring cleaning at this time. The five major functions of regularly cleaning the car throttle: 1. It can effectively clean and unclog the gum and carbon deposits of the fuel injector, keeping the fuel system clean; 2. It can clean the exhaust gas recirculation system, reduce exhaust emissions, save fuel, and effectively protect the oxygen sensor and three-way catalytic converter; 3. It can help prevent symptoms such as knocking, unstable idling, and poor acceleration caused by gum and carbon deposits; 4. It can eliminate carbon deposits on the valve seat, lubricate the valve and valve guide, improve sealing, restore cylinder pressure, and enhance power; 5. It can blow away combustion chamber carbon deposits, lubricate the upper area of the cylinder, reduce piston ring wear, and extend service life.
