Flush Carbon
The benefit of flushing your fuel injectors
Some of the most common complaints of drivers today, are lack of
engine performance and poor fuel economy. There are many
variables that can cause these two concerns. Old spark plugs,
clogged air filters, and plugged fuel filters are just a few of
the most commonly neglected maintenance items that cause these
complaints. One component which most people do not even think
about when it comes to tune-up maintenance is the FUEL INJECTORS.
As fuel burns within the combustion chamber, there are small
particles of carbon that are left behind. These small particles
stick to parts located within the cylinders. Over time these
become larger deposits that rob your engine of its performance
and economy. Intake and exhaust valves no longer seat properly
in the cylinder head. Fuel injectors become clogged and no
longer spray the fine atomized spray that they are designed to
for optimum performance. Carbon even sticks to the piston rings,
eventually causing oil consuption.
Regularly flushing your fuel injection system will not only
clean the fuel injectors, but will also help to clean the valves
and pistons at the same time. Another good practice to follow in
your daily quest to keep your engine maintained is to add a
cleaning agent to your fuel tank with every other fill up. This
will not prevent the carbon deposits completely, but will help
limit the amount of deposits between flushes. You will still
need to flush your fuel injectors once per year.
As gas prices continue to rise with no real end in site, we as
consumers need to take any measure we can to help with
increasing our fuel economy. Maintaining our fuel injection
systems is just one step toward achieving that goal.
A little auto repair advise will go a long way...

Are there any garages/service stations in S.C. or Georgia that offer the TerraClean Engine Cleaning treatment?
It originated in Canada, and it involves flushing out carbon build-up/residue from inside the engine with a specially-formulated gasoline...Help!...
I don't know any that use that specific one, but there are most Wal Marts in the area that use the "gunk out" system for the same process. its a process of additives to your fuel system that will break up and push out the carbon. That may be your best bet. Hope that helps. (Oh, and the wal marts I visit are in the Augusta area)
