2-Stage Carbon Cleaning

Read more

As per our Stage-1 service but with our unique Injector Cleaner. As Hydrogen is introduced into the engine through the air intake the injectors are the one component that this form of cleaning cannot reach. Therefore here are UK Carbon Cleaning we’ve developed our own injector cleaner solution. This is administered through the fuel system to work in conjunction with the Carbon Cleaning. Clean injectors makes for better atomisation of fuel and therefore closer to complete combustion is achieved which in turn means less carbon build-up! Includes FREE dealer level diagnostics scan.

Recommended for: Petrol vehicles without a turbo.

3-Stage Carbon Cleaning

Read more

As per our Stage-2 service plus our own branded chemical carbon cleaner solution that is designed to work in conjunction with the Hydrogen Carbon Cleaning. This unique chemical was developed when we realised that despite Hydrogen having some amazing results there are some limitations. Some carbon build-up retains moisture (mainly oily residues) which restricts the Hydrogen from interacting with the carbon as well as it could. This chemical is designed to burn as much of this oily residue away and dry out what is left so that thereafter the Hydrogen cleaning can produce even better results.

Recommended for: Petrol turbo and all diesel engines.

Want To Avoid Replacing Your Spark Plugs?

Carbon Cleaning is your best option


Why do Spark Plugs get dirty?

dirty spark plug

To a certain degree, Spark Plugs are designed to be self-cleaning. However, when they become dirty they will foul causing misfires, loss of power, fuel economy, and increased emissions. Different engine models require a certain specification of spark plug. As the engine runs the ceramic shell of the plugs must get hot enough that the electrode burns off any carbon deposits, oils and fuel, yet not so hot that there is a risk of detonation / pre-ignition.

Long journeys and highway speeds increase engine temperature which is a good environment for spark plug self-cleaning. However, short journeys and today’s ever-worsening stop-start traffic are not a good thing, temperatures don’t get high enough to aid the self-cleaning so deposits start to build on the electrodes. Eventually, this leads to failure of spark and misfires. The electricity sent to the plug from the ignition coil is short-circuited, the unspent fuel/air mixture is both recirculated (through the Exhaust Gas Recirculation system) which aids and abets carbon deposit build up in other parts of the engine and the rest exits through the exhaust in the form of excessive emissions and pollution.

Cleaning your Spark Plug

clean spark plugs

There are numerous ways to clean or replace the Fuel Injectors with varying prices.

The costliest option is a complete set of replacement parts. Most mechanics will recommend this – Why? Because they’ll earn a profit from the part and it’s a quicker job for them. The price of replacing Spark Plugs varies considerably and will obviously depend on how many the engine has.

The moderately expensive alternative is to remove the plugs and manually clean them with a wire brush, this requires some mechanical skill and time. The problem is not all spark plugs are accessible, especially for the novice mechanic. As there are no replacement parts involved the cost of this is just the labour.

Depending on the level of service chosen our engine carbon cleaning service takes a total of 45-60 minutes.

Carbon cleaning is not as such a fix, it’s original purpose is cleaning as a preventative measure as carbon build-up is the root cause of 85% of the failure of components. If your vehicle is suffering from faulty spark plugs the best solution is to replace them and then have a carbon clean service to clear out the excessive carbon produced by the faulty spark plugs not firing correctly and causing incomplete combustion.

You cannot clean too much but we recommend preventative cleaning once a year, or every 10-12,000 miles – just like a regular oil change but for the air and fuel side of your engine - little and often is the key and as the saying goes… ‘An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!

Certainly not. We are a worldwide brand with CE marked machines, operating in over 50 countries with 100’s of machines being used daily – never has there been an engine damaged from our engine carbon cleaning process.

We would not take any risks with your vehicle, so for piece of mind UKCC Auto Techs guarantee to you that all our technicians are trained to the highest standards and are independently fully insured.

No, this process is totally safe and untraceable.
