Benefits of cleaning the throttle

Cleaning the throttle can reduce fuel consumption and make the engine flexible and energetic. The throttle is the throat of the automobile engine, and whether the automobile accelerates flexibly has a great relationship with the dirt of the throttle.

How long the throttle will be dirty depends on the quality of the air filter, the brand and quality of the engine oil, the condition of the driving section, the temperature, the working temperature of the engine, driving habits and so on.

Personally, the time to clean the throttle cannot be determined by a fixed number of kilometers. The interval between cleaning the throttle for the first time in a new car is the longest. Later, due to the continuous condensation of oil and gas in the crankcase ventilation pipe and intake port, the cleaning frequency will increase, and different weather conditions will also affect the speed of throttle scaling.

Matters needing attention in expanding data

1, throttle scaling is mainly caused by oil vapor, followed by particles and moisture in the air. Using a qualified air filter and removing the crankcase ventilation pipe will make the throttle valve scale much slower.

2. Long-term use of carburetor cleaner to clean the throttle will make the throttle gum form faster and faster, and frequent cleaning will lead to frequent failures and high maintenance costs, which will eventually be solved by replacing the throttle.

3. When cleaning the throttle valve, it is not necessary to disassemble it, but the sealing part of the inlet steam must be cleaned, and the idling motor must be removed to clean it.

4. Generally, the inner cavity of electronic throttle is treated with special coating, which has the functions of anti-static, non-dust-collecting, and reducing the glue formation on its surface. Carburetor cleaning agent has serious damage to the special coating on the throttle valve, which leads to the increase of idle speed and fuel consumption.

5. The carburetor cleaner has no lubrication function. Using carburetor cleaner to clean the original lubricating oil on the throttle will be completely removed, which will lead to the failure of throttle operation, electronic throttle control and cruise control devices.
