What Are the Benefits of Engine Cleaning?
2 Answers
Modern automobile engines are designed with high precision, reducing environmental pollution and improving fuel combustion efficiency. However, this also significantly increases the requirements for engine oil, oil additives, and the cleanliness of the engine itself. Over time, harmful substances such as carbon deposits and sludge accumulate inside the engine. These deposits can lead to increased fuel consumption, reduced power output, and failure to meet the precise clearance requirements of the engine. In severe cases, they may even cause engine damage. Cleaning the engine offers the following benefits: 1. Remove Carbon Deposits: Effectively cleans internal engine carbon deposits, sludge, and other harmful substances. 2. Neutralize Acidic Substances: Neutralizes long-term harmful acidic substances generated inside the engine and cleans the crankcase PVC valve. 3. Eliminate Sludge: Cleans valve lifters and hydraulic lifters, prevents mixing of old and new oil, and removes sludge and oil films formed by old oil to avoid degrading the performance of new oil. 4. Improve Engine Performance: Reduces noise and decreases fuel and oil consumption. 5. Clean the Engine Lubrication System: Enhances oil fluidity, lowers engine temperature, improves lubrication efficiency, and prevents oil burning in the engine.
I've always loved driving, and after cleaning the engine, I feel the response is much quicker. With carbon deposits removed, combustion is more efficient, horsepower increases, and climbing hills becomes easier. Fuel consumption has also dropped—my car went from 8L/100km to 7.5, saving me a lot on gas money over a year. The key is that engine noise has reduced, making driving more comfortable. Regular cleaning also prevents corrosion, extends the engine's lifespan, and avoids major repairs. I recommend combining it with routine maintenance, such as cleaning when changing the engine oil.
