How to Use Gasoline Cleaner Correctly?
2 Answers
For cars with a long service life and significant carbon buildup for the first time, it is best to use two standard bottles. For new cars, it is recommended to use only one bottle for the first application, or apply it every 5,000-8,000 kilometers driven. The general ratio is 1:1000. For a car with a 33-liter tank, each bottle can be used twice. The usage cycle is typically every 1,000-2,000 kilometers.
I used to think gasoline cleaners were simple to use, but last time I poured it directly into a half-full tank, and the engine started shaking—scared me! Later, I learned the correct steps: first open the fuel cap, pour in a bottle of cleaner, then immediately fill up the tank with gasoline. This ensures even mixing and prevents damage to components. I make it a habit to use it every 5,000 km, then drive on the highway for about half an hour to burn off carbon deposits—it works great. Avoid no-name brands; stick with reputable ones to prevent issues. Regular use can also improve fuel efficiency and power, saving money and hassle. Remember not to overdo it—one bottle is enough, as excess can clog injectors or contaminate sensors. Now, I use it before every oil change—simple and effective.
