How to Drive to Reduce Engine Carbon Deposits?
2 Answers
It is necessary to regularly clean various components inside the car's engine, replace the engine oil and oil filter at regular intervals, and replace parts prone to carbon deposits, such as spark plugs. Here is more information about the engine: Engine Principle: The engine used in cars is a machine that converts chemical energy into mechanical energy. The piston is the central system of the engine. Under the engine's working conditions, the piston is the busiest component, continuously performing reciprocating motion. The engine is the most important part of a car; without it, the car cannot be driven. Spark Plug Function Principle: The spark plug generates sparks through the discharge phenomenon between its electrodes. The performance of the engine depends on the effectiveness of the sparks produced by the spark plug. The spark plug is equivalent to the heart of the engine.
The key to reducing engine carbon deposits is to develop good driving habits. Having driven for twenty years, I've found that avoiding prolonged low-speed driving is particularly important. For example, constantly braking in traffic jams or idling for too long can lead to incomplete fuel combustion. Regularly finding a good opportunity to drive on the highway, revving the engine above 3000 RPM for about ten minutes, can effectively flush away carbon deposits. Just like how I often take my family out on weekends, which also helps clean the engine. Additionally, using high-octane gasoline (95 or above) and performing regular maintenance, such as changing the air filter, are also very helpful. These habits not only make the car run smoother but also extend the engine's lifespan, saving fuel and money in daily driving.
