If you have recently taken
your car for a service, or for a clean-up of the fuel system or
engine, you must have noticed your technician talking about something
called a ‘TerraClean’.
You must have ignored that then, thinking it is just another
marketing gimmick, but TerraClean is a new service promising an
optimised and efficient engine cleaning. In this article, let’s
discuss why it is changing the age-old engine cleaning process, and
how you can benefit from it.
TerraClean, what is it?
TerraClean is a North
American brand which offers a whole host of equipment for
‘carbonizing’ car engines. It works in two stages. First, it
cleans the injector units and the inlet valves so that they cannot
contaminate the insides of an internal combustion engine. This
process also helps regain the actual amount of fuel that goes inside
the pistons. Over time, a significant amount of carbon build-up
occurs inside various parts of your car engine. TerraClean agents
target these and clean them thoroughly.
The second stage is when a
special fuel is sent into the combustion chamber to clean it from
inside. This works on a principle known as Coulombic fractionation.
That special fuel is charged passive-negatively, which changes the
molecular structure of the fuel and turn the accumulated carbon
inside the chamber into carbon-dioxide. That gas then comes out of
the tailpipe.
If you know about engine
carbon cleaning, you know how efficient
your car becomes once it is clean. The ECU stays stress-free, gets a
proper reading of the fuel-air mixture that comes in your car’s
engine and reacts faster while changing the mix from time to time.
So, is it only for
petrol cars?
The good news is
TerraClean is for both diesel, and petrol engines. TerraClean
diesel services
offer a much better cleaning of the Diesel Particulate Filter. A DPF
captures all the soot and fine particles a diesel engine generates,
and after filtering it, sends it through the exhaust. However, in
that process, the filter itself becomes extremely filthy, and after a
point, it gets chocked.
The moment it’s blocked,
your car will go into a lifeless mode. As the exhaust is not venting
outside, your car’s engine will choke with the smoke that keeps
coming back inside the combustion chamber.
Terra Clean services have
become especially popular for these reasons only. A regular Terra
Clean diesel cleaning includes removing
the clogged bits from the filter. It uses a unique penetrative
maintenance process to clean the DPF. And, if it is incredibly
filthy, you can ask the car service garage for a complete Terra
Clean DPF service. They will use a unique
tool to sanitise the DPF and help it regain its functionality.
It is far better than an
ordinary DPF cleaning, or a complete overhaul. A replacement DPF for
a family car can cost north of £900, and sub-standard after market
models are just not up to the mark. Terra
Clean cost is not only lower, but it also
helps reduce your carbon footprint.
The future of efficient
and clean cars
Research says that
TerraClean far more efficient than ordinary pour-in engine cleaners,
and hundreds of testimonies of satisfied users all around the UK is
proof of that. Take Lough borough Refurbish Fast Fit Centre for example; their
Terra Clean services attract customers from every neighboring town
who are looking for a better option than the age-old engine cleaner
oil.
With over 500 TerraClean service locations
all over the country, you will have no
trouble finding one for the clean-up. They make it a policy to
include trained technicians in every single service station. With a
better clean-up, not only you will restore your car’s efficiency
and improve its mileage, but you will also reduce harmful emission
and get a longer service life from your vehicle. So don’t forget to
discuss about it next time you visit a service garage.
Have a safe drive!
