Broadly speaking engine perfomance and durability is enhanced. Exhaust gases
are reduced and
car fuel economy is increased. Use of
automotive engine fuel
cleaners prolongs the life of the engine, systems are cleaned of
foreign bodies, parts are protected and lubricated and leaks may be prevented.
The benefits of using
automotive engine fuel cleaners are significant
but yet are over looked by the majority of motorists.
Automotive engine fuel cleaners can be used in the following situations.
Cars can lose power, judder and stall when the carburettor becomes clogged with
fuel deposits.
When debris builds up in the intake valves and ports the fuel mixture is
affected and also the valve function which can impact on cylinder
compression.
Oil deposits can have a serious impact on important engine components in the
crankcase, thus affecting vehicle running and
engine performance.
Oil is vital to the smooth running of an engine for many reasons. It helps cool
and lubricate the
car engine and parts as well as cleaning and preventing rust.
However, oil residues and sludge can restrict or block oil flow within the
engine. This can cause higher oil pressure, sticking piston rings, impaired oil
flow, increased engine wear and higher engine operating temperatures.
Crankcase cleaners restore engine compression, clean piston rings, hydraulic
lifters and oil pathways. Oil flow is increased which results in a reduction in
oil pressure.
Deposits in the combustion chamber mean a higher octane fuel is required in
order that the engine doesn't make a knocking sound. For this reason owners of
High Mileage Cars may have to buy higher octane fuels which are generally more
expensive.
Other problems caused by residue in the combustion chamber include slower
acceleration and more exhaust pollution.
Low sulphur diesel is now the norm. However, low sulphur fuel requires
lubricants to be added to replace those which are removed in the process of
extracting the sulphur. Using a fuel which has not had any or sufficient
additives added can shorten the life of the fuel pump in your vehicle.
Automotive engine fuel cleaners clean the carburettor, fuel injectors, intake
valves and ports and combustion chamber.
