Is Engine External Cleaning Necessary?
1 Answers
Engine external cleaning is necessary. The following are the impacts of not cleaning the engine for a long time: 1. A large amount of sludge will form and adhere to the inner walls of the cylinders. The resulting pressure directly hinders the smooth movement of the pistons, and the high temperature inside the engine cannot be dissipated through oil circulation, leading to a decrease in engine power and a sharp increase in fuel consumption. 2. Due to the presence of sludge, the lubrication effect is reduced. The sludge is difficult to dilute with oil, and the mechanical friction will intensify during cylinder movement, increasing the load on the crankshaft rotation and causing severe damage to the engine. 3. If the sludge is not cleaned for a long time, it will accumulate more and more. After noticing a decrease in engine power, even replacing the new oil cannot resolve the issue of space compression, and it may cause the new oil to deteriorate. During the cleaning process, hardened sludge may break off and block the oil passages, so it is recommended to have the cleaning done at a professional 4S shop.
