    Engine interior cleaners are useful, but their effectiveness is relatively limited.

    The engine internal cleaning agent can clean the dirty sludge remaining in the engine oil channel, and at the same time, it can also clean the carbon deposits in the piston ring and ring groove to a certain extent, which has an actual maintenance effect on the engine, but because of its short time in the engine lubrication system, coupled with the defects of this non-dismantling cleaning method, the role of the engine internal cleaning agent is relatively limited. Engine cleaning agent is mainly divided into two types: engine oil version and fuel version according to its composition and addition method, and the fuel version commonly used by car owners is poured through the oil filler, mixed and diluted with fuel, and then enters the engine combustion to play a purifying role.

    Useful.

    Because it stands to reason that engine cleaners have a strong ability to remove oil stains. When I used to go to motorcycle maintenance, I was also recommended to do a similar engine cleaning project, I saw that the cleaning agent does have a strong cleaning ability, after spraying into the engine from the cylinder head, a lot of metal flakes flow out of the oil drain hole below, and the oil stain in the sprayed place is also very clean.

    However, the reason why the oil has the ability to lubricate is that it can form a lubricating oil film on the surface of the parts, so after such a strong cleaning agent is washed, the oil film on the surface of the parts will definitely be damaged.

    If the cleaning agent does not have this effect, it means that there is no point in filling, but the situation after cleaning is just the opposite, if the surface of the parts can not adhere to the oil film after cleaning, then the wear of the engine will be particularly large, if the cleaning agent is not completely removed and the clean oil is added, the residual cleaning agent will definitely destroy the oil filled later, resulting in poor oil lubrication, and it will also cause excessive wear of the parts.

    Engine cleaners are useful, but their effectiveness is relatively limited. The following is the relevant information about the engine cleaning oil: 1. It can clean up the sludge, carbon deposits, gum and other harmful substances inside the engine to keep the engine clean, so as to enhance the fluidity of the oil, reduce the wear of the parts of the trembling parts, and prolong the service life of the engine.

    However, some people say that the oil itself has a certain cleaning effect and does not need to be cleaned with a cleaning agent. 2. The engine works in a high-temperature environment for a long time, and may produce some carbon deposits and impurities due to fuel and other problems. 3. However, it is not recommended to use engine cleaner for cars that have never used engine cleaner and mileage and vehicle age, if there is more sludge inside the engine, the use of cleaning agent may cause oil channel blockage, and the cleaning effect is not so good.

It has a certain effect.

Engine carbon deposition cleaning agent is made of high-efficiency surfactants, detergents, corrosion inhibitors and other additives, the appearance is colorless and transparent liquid, and it is diluted with water at a concentration of 3-6% when used. It has a strong washing ability for various oil stains such as mineral oil, animal and vegetable oil. >>>More

Carbon deposition is a kind of coke substance produced by unsaturated olefins and gum in the fuel at high temperature during the working process of the engine. It can accumulate in various parts of the engine, such as the intake and exhaust systems; fuel chamber; Fuel injectors, etc. It has the characteristics of oil absorption, which will make the incomplete combustion of gasoline become carbon deposits, layer by layer, thicker and thicker, so that a vicious circle. >>>More

Hello, the use of ordinary cars, carbon deposits are gradually increasing, which will lead to poor engine performance, idle shaking, poor acceleration, increased fuel consumption, exhaust excess and other undesirable phenomena. This is because the carbon deposition in the intake tract, valve and combustion chamber will adsorb fuel in the cool car and release the fuel when the car is hot, resulting in the reason that the cool car is not easy to land and the fuel consumption of the hot car is high, so the engine fuel supply system and combustion chamber must be cleaned in time. In short, engine fuel cleaners are still useful. >>>More

Useless.

The detergent did not work. This is because cleaning on the catalyst is only useful at high temperatures. The three-way catalytic converter does not have the ability to catalyze at room temperature, and the catalyst must be heated to a certain temperature to have the ability to oxidize or reduce, usually the ignition temperature of the catalytic converter is 250-350, and the normal working temperature is 400-800. >>>More

The engine compartment can of course be washed. But it is not safe to clean the engine compartment directly with water, because now the electronic components such as the trip computer and the fuse box of the car engine are afraid of water, so we should try to avoid short circuits in water, we only need to prepare some tools, dial in the engine compartment cleaner, brush or toothbrush, towel and watering can. We all know that the biggest source of pollution in the engine compartment of a car is dust and dirt. >>>More
