How Often Should the Engine Oil Passage Be Cleaned?
1 Answers
Generally, the engine oil passage should be cleaned every 50,000 kilometers. Regular cleaning of the oil passage can remove carbon deposits from the fuel injectors, addressing issues such as engine shaking, lagging, poor atomization, and sluggish acceleration. After cleaning the engine oil passage, power can be quickly restored. More details about engine oil passage cleaning are as follows: The purpose of oil passage cleaning: Engines often operate under high temperatures, and parts of the fuel system like the fuel injectors are prone to clogging from deposits such as carbon and gum, leading to poor atomization. This results in reduced engine power, increased fuel consumption, excessive exhaust emissions, and incomplete combustion. Therefore, regular cleaning and maintenance of the fuel system are necessary. After cleaning, the throttle becomes lighter, gear shifts become quicker, and power is rapidly restored. Specific method: Before changing the oil, add a bottle of cleaning agent, start the engine, and let it run for about ten minutes. This period allows the cleaning agent to clean the system. After cleaning, proceed with the oil change. Engine internal cleaning refers to cleaning the oil passage—anywhere the oil passes through can be cleaned. It does not involve cleaning carbon deposits from the cylinders.
