I've been thinking about this for a long time. We need to pay attention to preventing carbon buildup in our daily driving. If you do a lot of short-distance driving, take the opportunity on weekends to hit the highway and rev up the engine, letting it breathe freely. Don't skimp on fuel—using 95-octane gasoline from reputable gas stations can reduce the formation of gum deposits. Add a reliable cleaner every 5,000 kilometers; pouring it in when refueling and then taking a highway drive works best. If you notice your car accelerating sluggishly and consuming more fuel, it's likely due to carbon buildup. Cleaning the fuel injectors can have an immediate effect. Remember to clean the throttle body every 30,000 miles—last time I did it, the throttle felt much lighter. Paying attention to these details can save you a lot more hassle than major repairs.
