If you suspect your fuel injectors are clogged, a professional inspection and service are necessary to restore optimal performance. At Intake Cleaning, we offer injector cleaning and replacement services to ensure smooth engine operation.
A clogged EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) passage can significantly impact your engine’s performance and emissions. Common symptoms of a clogged EGR passage include:
A clogged inlet manifold can cause various symptoms that indicate restricted airflow and carbon build-up. Common signs include:
A dirty intake system can lead to several issues that negatively impact your vehicle’s performance and longevity. When carbon deposits and soot accumulate in the intake manifold, throttle body, or EGR valve, they can restrict airflow and disrupt the precise fuel-to-air mixture your engine requires.
The frequency of intake cleaning depends on factors such as your vehicle type, driving conditions, and fuel quality. As a general rule, we recommend cleaning your intake system every 50,000 to 100,000 kilometres.
An intake clean is a specialised service designed to remove carbon deposits, soot, and other debris from your vehicle’s intake system. This system includes components such as the intake manifold, throttle body, EGR valve, and sometimes the turbocharger.
Yes, intake cleaning is a necessary part of maintaining your vehicle’s engine performance and efficiency. Over time, carbon deposits, soot, and other contaminants build up inside the intake manifold, throttle body, and other components of the intake system. These deposits can restrict airflow, disrupt fuel-to-air mixture ratios, and cause your engine to work harder than necessary.
After intake cleaning, it’s advisable to use high-quality fuel, adhere to regular maintenance schedules, and consider installing an oil catch can for applicable vehicles to minimise future carbon buildup.
The duration varies depending on the engine type and the extent of carbon buildup. Typically, intake cleaning can be completed within a few hours.
Walnut shell blasting is effective for many engine types, especially those prone to carbon buildup, like direct injection engines. However, it’s essential to consult with professionals to determine the best cleaning method for your specific engine.
