Engine Cleaning
Many
original equipment manufacturers recommend vehicle oil changes
every three months or 3,000 miles. This meets most manufacturer’s
severe maintenance requirements.
As a vehicle burns gasoline, it produces sludge which is comprised of water,
unburned gasoline, varnish, and metal particulate matter. Every vehicle is equipped
with an oil filter designed to remove this sludge and abrasive deposits. Unfortunately
an oil filter does not remove all of the sludge and deposits produced.
During normal oil changes, up to 3/4 of a quart of old, contaminated oil, sludge
and abrasives can remain in the engine. When the new oil is added to the engine,
it quickly mixes with the contaminated oil, and begins to circulate through the
engine. The result is that the new oil looks as dirty as the old oil, just like
it did before the oil change! When the new oil mixes with old oil, it can reduce
the effectiveness of your oil which may lead to problems
in the engine that you or your customers may not be aware of until something
serious happens.
Even with frequent oil changes, harmful deposits
along with oil buildup can result in reduced
compression, lowered horsepower, and reduced
engine life. What is called for is an alternate
method of servicing your customer’s engine
that will completely clean out the additional
residue, and ensure efficient engine performance
and longer engine life.
The answer is our Engine Cleaning System.
The Engine Cleaning System flushes
out the old, contaminated oil from all engine parts and surfaces, ensuring a
completely clean engine system. When the new oil is added, it stays cleaner longer
and you can visibly see the difference. How does the system work?
The Engine Cleaning System works with
two specially developed products and a filter* that are all used in conjunction
with the Engine Cleaning System.
First, Internal Engine Cleaner is added to the machine.
The cleaner is injected into the engine, then circulated through the continuous
closed loop system for 10 minutes, while the vehicle’s engine is running.
This allows the Internal Engine Cleaner to penetrate
and clean engine surfaces and components. A timer signals the end of the ten
minute period. The machine and vehicle are turned off. The old oil is then drained
from the system.
Next, the engine cleaning machine’s air flush cycle is turned
on. Low pressure air is pushed through the engine, which forces
all of the residual oil out of the engine, making it ready to be
filled with clean motor oil. After the addition of clean motor
oil, and new filter, Oil Treatment is added to the engine. The
treatment enhances the lubrication, protection and deposit control
properties of engine oil, and protects the engine components from
rust and corrosion.
