Clean the throttle after 10 thousand kilometers?

Cleaning the accelerator is a common item in vehicle maintenance. Although there is a fixed cycle, it also varies from car to car. Some cars get dirty before the throttle reaches a fixed period. But some cars have passed the cleaning cycle and the throttle is still clean, so what caused this difference? And how can we slow down the pace of dirty throttle?

Let's look at an example. Mr. Zhou bought the same car with his friend earlier. Although they are not all together, they all go to the same 4S shop. After that, I talked with my friends about maintenance. Mr. Zhou complained to his friends that his car needs to be cleaned every 10000 km.

If you don't clean the car, it will shake badly. By the way, I asked my friend if his car had this phenomenon, and my friend said that his car was cleaned only after driving more than 20 thousand kilometers. Only after Mr. Zhou learned about the situation did he know that his friend paid great attention to the replacement of the air filter when repairing the car, but he always felt that there was nothing wrong with the air filter and it did not need to be replaced frequently. This is also the main reason why the throttle of your car is always dirty! This is because the filter element is not strong, and the throttle will get dirty soon.

The throttle controls the intake of the engine. If the air entering the throttle valve contains impurities, these impurities will accumulate on the throttle valve and form a "garbage layer". The work of filtering air is completed by the air filter element, which must be in good working condition to ensure that the air passing through the throttle valve does not contain impurities. Some car owners don't realize the importance of this small filter. When the air filter element needs to be replaced, its filtering function will decrease. Dust will attach to the throttle valve, making it dirty. Therefore, replacing the air filter element regularly is an effective method to delay the throttle scaling.

The significance of avoiding frequent cleaning of throttle valve is not only to save maintenance cost, but more importantly, frequent cleaning is not completely beneficial to vehicle condition. Excessive cleaning will lead to mechanical damage and affect the power and fuel consumption of the vehicle! Frequent replacement of air filter element will prolong the cleaning cycle of throttle valve to a certain extent, and the cost is relatively low, economical and practical!
