What is Gasoline Additive?
1 Answers
Gasoline additive is an abbreviation for fuel additive, which generally also includes diesel additives. It is designed to compensate for the inherent quality issues of fuel and the limitations in automotive mechanical manufacturing, thereby enabling gasoline engines to overcome cold shock effects and crevice effects, as well as to remove carbon deposits on intake valves and fuel injectors. As a vehicle continues to operate, substances such as sludge and carbon deposits can form in the throttle body, fuel injectors, cylinders, and other parts of the engine, which can affect the normal operation of the vehicle. If the presence of sludge and carbon deposits is ignored, they can gradually erode engine power, reduce fuel economy, increase emissions of environmentally harmful substances, and lead to a series of engine malfunctions.
