Modern engine technology combined with the poor quality of most gasolines are wreaking havoc on the induction systems and intake components of our engines. Most engines in vehicles built after 2005 are equipped with Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) fuel systems. GDI injects the fuel directly into the combustion chambers. Unlike intake port injected engines (1980's to 2005ish) which can clean the intake port and valves when good fuel and additives are used, the GDI systems leave these components untouched and contaminated with carbon deposits. They literally strangle the throat of your engine by restricting air flow into the combustion chamber. These deposits cause a myriad of problems from poor idle quality, sluggish performance, lower gas mileage, and all the way to engine damage if left unchecked.
> In January, we will be offering a state of the art cleaning process using the ATS 3C Intelligent Induction Cleaner. Unlike "spray cans" or even "pressurized bottle" cleaning methods, this machine accurately dispenses cleaning fluids based on the engine we are cleaning. Using a three chemical process, The computer controlled system safely cleans by alternating between two chemical treatments and finishes with a rinse agent. This procedure, combined with the patented chemicals, will clean the induction system, intake valves, and ports along with the carbon deposits in the combustion chamber without causing damage to the engine or the catalytic converters. While this method is more expensive than spraying a can of cleaner down the engine intake. Using this cleaning method we can guarantee a safe and reliable induction system cleaning every time. Even though this system was specifically designed for GDI engines, it works superbly on most gasoline vehicle engines from carbureted, to every type of fuel injection system. Note: there are a few European engines that cannot be cleaned due to their intake manifold configurations. Give us a call, we can give your car's engine a breathe of fresh air.
