How to Deal with Carbon Deposits in Cars?
2 Answers
There are several methods to clean carbon deposits in cars: 1. Intravenous cleaning: Hang a bottle-shaped tool above the engine, pour cleaning agent into it, and then introduce it into the engine through a conduit to clean carbon deposits. If the engine has severe carbon deposits, this method may cause blockage or damage to the catalytic converter system. 2. Machine cleaning: Inject cleaning agent into a machine, pressurize it into the combustion chamber, allow the cleaning agent to react with and dissolve the carbon deposits, and then extract the waste liquid. This method is quite effective for severe carbon deposits and does not require disassembling the engine, but it is costly, and the engine oil needs to be replaced after cleaning. 3. Engine disassembly cleaning: This is the most effective method. The entire engine is disassembled, and cleaning agents, ultrasonic methods, etc., are used to completely and thoroughly remove carbon deposits from the components. However, it can be seen that engine disassembly cleaning requires a lot of time and effort.
I've been driving for quite some years and found that carbon deposits in cars are quite annoying, as they can make the engine lose power and increase fuel consumption. Daily habits are very important, such as choosing high-quality fuel, reducing idle time, and when driving on highways, try to run at high speed for a few minutes to use the engine's high RPM to flush out carbon deposits. Preventive measures also include regularly adding fuel additives or carbon deposit cleaners; adding them during each maintenance allows the system to clean itself while driving. Avoid prolonged low-speed driving, especially the stop-and-go traffic in urban areas, which is most prone to carbon buildup. If you feel the car is losing power, address it early; otherwise, repairs can be troublesome and expensive. Prevention is key, saving a lot on repair costs and prolonging the life of your beloved car.
