What is Hydro Carbon Cleaning and how does it work?
A well-maintained modern car should be capable of covering six-figure mileages without needing any major attention. But it is reasonable to expect some drop off in performance as a car gets older and components wear.
Many garages will recommend carbon cleaning as a way of restoring some of that lost performance, or as a way of helping your car pass the emissions part of the MoT test.
Hydrogen engine cleaning is a method of cleaning engines that have accumulated harmful carbon deposits and other contaminants over time. This process involves introducing hydrogen gas into the engine’s air intake. The hydrogen gas reacts with the carbon deposits, breaking them down into smaller particles. These smaller particles are then expelled through the exhaust system, leaving a cleaner engine. Unlike traditional methods that required physically scraping off carbon deposits, hydrogen engine cleaning is a more efficient and less invasive approach.
Here’s how it works:
- Hydrogen Gas Introduction: Hydrogen gas is introduced into the engine’s air intake.
- Reaction with Carbon Deposits: The gas moves through the engine, reacting with carbon deposits.
- Breakdown of Deposits: Carbon deposits break down into smaller particles.
- Exhaust Expulsion: The smaller particles are expelled through the exhaust system.
- Cleaner Engine: Left behind is a cleaner engine that performs more efficiently with reduced harmful emissions and will help your car to regain its original performance, pass MoT emissions check, consume less fuel and reduce pollution. Almost three quarters of faults that occur with engines are caused by carbon deposits.
While hydrogen engine cleaning can be effective, it’s essential to maintain your car well to avoid excessive carbon build up. Regular servicing, using quality oil and filters, and occasionally giving your car a good run can help prevent the need for extensive cleaning. Keep in mind that results may vary, and some studies suggest that hydrogen engine cleaning may not fully address direct injection carbon build up on valves. However, it remains a viable option for maintaining engine performance and prolonging the lifespan of your vehicle.
