after a decarb you should flush oil & change its filter , fuel filter , change\clean spark plugs , i recheck spray patterns of the injectors , clean\replace airfilter , hmmm...flush your radiator if you never have and of course throttle body cleaning this is all essential , apart from the radiator which is advisable , for optimum results look at my earlier posts for the links of AUTONICS decarb machine any idea which machine they used in your car? if your not on mobil 1 : get on it man > if you drive for pleasure <hard or light. cheers cy | |

| ![]() Hey fellows, could someone please tell me the difference between an engine decarb and an engine flush? After going through the posts, I'm still not sure about the above. Here's my experience with the 3 cars I drive: 1. M800 (75K+ Km): Never done decarb/flush and the car still runs pretty smooth. 2. Indica V2 (1L+ Km): Had done decarb once at 20K service but never after that. The car's still running quite smooth. 3. Esteem MPFI (~8K Km): Now going from my previous experiences, I don't know if I should get a decarb for it in the future! Gurus please advise. Thanks in advance! |

| ![]() Hi, My mpfi zen had done 32k, got decarbonization done at RNS yeshwantpur, feels smoother. the bill has a line item called 3M Engine Rejenuvation and they have charged me 1900 bucks for it.I asked him if it includes throttle body cleaning and fuel injection cleaning, he said yes. Still need to check wat the impact on mileage is. I was getting 12 kmpl prior to it. Will keep you guys posted. Cheers, Nitin |

| ![]() Hi, I have santro 2001, purchased second hand this year (Aug 2007). ODO 42K. I am not aware if engine flush was carried out by previous owner. I checked with Huynadai ASC, they discouraged me from doing engine flush stating there could be oil leak. I wish to know, if I can get it done correctly with out causing any further trouble to any of engine part in Mumbai. Please advice. Thank you. |

| ![]() Hi, I have two cars--- M800 (4 speed 2001 model MPFI with 65K on the odo) and Lancer Slxi (1999 with 93K on the odo). I want to have the engine flushed with OWS\STP. I have read that flush can cause problems on engines with high mileage which have never had flushing done before. The problems range from Choked Oil pan (what is this??) to leakages. Seniors--- Kindly advise whether I should have the engine flushed and any precautions that I should take. P.S. Both cars run on CNG |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Is decarb required for diesel engines? If yes, then at what kms, and normal diesel flush to be used right? I am using synthetic oil. |

more carbon than a petrol people say for you from me bookmarks MotorVac MotorVac this is to decarb your engine top for an oil flush for your lower half use OWS 210 : engine flush its killer and highly recommended for diesels you can get it at N1 -600 rs PS : especially with petes box decarb at every oil change before you change your oil obviously. any good MASS will hook you up Last edited by cyneverdie : 9th February 2008 at 03:52. | |

Engine Flushout is a process used to clean the carbon/oil sludge/deposits in from the power transmitting parts like crankshafts, bearings etc located below the pistons and cylinder blocks. gearbox flush out is also done to clean the transmission. fresh engine and gearbox oil alongwith suppliments from reputed brands like bardahl or STP are recommended. both the above processes have to be carried out every 20 k kms for better performance and good engine life. | |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() decarb for diesel engine is very much needed perhaps more earlier than petrol engines say 10k-15k. also engine flush out should be done at 15k. this will considerably increase the diesel engine life. |
