Eliminate Carbon Buildup in Your Engine: Discover the Power of FTC Decarbonizer and Its Impact on Performance

Maintaining an engine is like caring for our health: it requires attention, regular check-ups, and preventative measures to avoid bigger issues. A crucial yet often overlooked aspect of engine health is carbon buildup. Understanding how carbon affects engine performance can lead to more efficient drives. This post explores the impact of carbon buildup on performance, signs of carbonization and how FTC Decarbonizer can keep your engine running smoothly.

Understanding Carbon Buildup

Carbon buildup occurs due to incomplete fuel combustion, resulting in deposits in critical engine parts like the combustion chamber, intake valves, DPFs, turbos, EGRs and fuel injectors. Most older and many new diesel engines experience carbon buildup, leading to costly repairs if unmanaged.

Difference Between Carbon Buildup and Engine Sludge

While both carbon buildup and engine sludge are byproducts of combustion and can negatively impact engine performance, they are distinct issues. Carbon buildup primarily consists of hard deposits formed from incomplete combustion, often found in the combustion chamber, on valves, fuel injectors and DPFs. In contrast, engine sludge is a thick, tar-like substance that results from the breakdown of engine oil, often due to overheating or blow-by contamination.

Effects of Carbon Buildup on Vehicle Performance

Carbon accumulation decreases engine efficiency, longevity and power. Common issues include:

• Reduced Fuel Efficiency: Disrupts air-fuel mixture and fuel injector spray patterns, potentially dropping fuel economy by 30%.

• Rough Idling: Causes misfires and uneven idling.

• Loss of Power: Blocks airflow, leading to power loss during acceleration.

• Increased Emissions: Less efficient combustion increases emissions by 50%.

• Reduces Critical Engine Compression: Glazes cylinders, sticks piston rings and clogs valves

• Fouls Engine Sensors: Blocks EGRs, DPFs and others

• Increased Wear: Carbon in your engine oil acts like grinding paste

Signs Your Engine Needs Decarbonization

Key signs include:

• Decreased Performance: Struggling to accelerate or maintain speed.

• Check Engine Light: May signal incomplete combustion due to carbon deposits.

• Unusual Noises: Knocking or pinging sounds.

• Increased Fuel Consumption: More frequent fuel station visits.

• Exhaust smoke: Black under load, blue and white when starting from cold

Introducing FTC Decarbonizer

FTC Decarbonizer effectively breaks down carbon deposits everywhere the combustion flame, or hot exhaust gases go to. This is a catalytic oxidation like no other product. It’s harmless to engines yet restores efficiency and power.

Why Choose FTC Decarbonizer?

Benefits include:

1. Easy Application: Pour into the fuel tank; works while driving.

2. Cost-Effective: Saves fuel and prevents costly repairs.

3. Extended Engine Lifespan: Prevents harmful carbon accumulation.

4. Enhanced Performance: Smoother idling, increased power, improved fuel economy.

5. Lower Emissions: Reduces carbon footprint and emission test failures.

6. Reduces exhaust smokes: Virtually eliminates black, blue and white exhaust smoke.

Maintenance Tips to Prevent Carbon Buildup

Tips include:

• Regular Oil Changes: Follow manufacturer recommendations.

• Use Quality Fuel and FTC Decarbonizer: Reduces carbon buildup.

• Schedule Regular Inspections: Catch issues early.

• Avoid Short Trips: Longer drives promote complete combustion. This is not a problem when using FTC
