Carbon Cleaning
What is engine carbon?
Engine carbon is a build-up of internal deposits such as gums, tars & carbon inside a combustion engine. They are formed by incomplete combustion of the fuel whether that’s petrol or diesel. When ignited 100% of the fuel is not combusted and therefore it harms the performance of the engine and leaves these harmful deposits.
What is carbon cleaning?
Engine carbon cleaning is a popular and cost-effective way of getting inside the engine of the vehicle to remove carbon deposits. The more miles a vehicle is used the more internal deposits it will have. To carbon clean your engine, we create oxygen and hydrogen. The oxygen gives better combustion & hydrogen creates a natural solvent that infuses with the carbon. This process softens the carbon and allows it to be burnt away. This ensures that any excess carbon that may cause your vehicle to run poorly is removed. It’s a safe and simple process that does not require us to use any chemical products or dismantle the parts of your engine. With hydrogen, it is impossible to damage an engine.
What are the benefits?
- Decreased Vehicle Emissions
- Restore Engine Power
- Restore Fuel Economy
- Restored Throttle Response
- Less Engine Noise
- Smoother Idling
- Extended Lifespan Of Key Engine Components
- Reduced Risk Of Expensive Component Failure
What internal components get cleaned during the process?
Combustion Chamber, Piston Crown, Top Piston Ring, Valves, Valve Seats, Spark Plugs, Injector Nozzles, EGR Valve, Lambda Sensors, and other Exhaust Sensors.
Catalytic Converters & Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF) are also conditioned during the process.
How often should cleaning be carried out?
We would recommend that every year around service & MOT time for most engines – Approximately 10,000 miles & every 3 months on heavy industry engines (E.g – Taxis & Delivery Vehicles)

What are the benefits of engine carbon cleaning?
Engine carbon cleaning offers several benefits to your vehicle’s performance and longevity:
- Improved Fuel Efficiency: Carbon buildup in the engine can hinder fuel combustion efficiency. Cleaning the carbon deposits enhances fuel efficiency, potentially saving you money at the pump
- Restored Engine Power: Carbon deposits on intake valves and other engine components can restrict airflow, leading to reduced engine power. Carbon cleaning helps restore optimal performance,
- Extended Engine Life: Regular carbon cleaning can prevent excessive wear on engine components, potentially extending the overall lifespan of your engine,
- Reduced Emissions: A cleaner engine operates more efficiently and produces fewer harmful emissions, contributing to a greener and more environmentally friendly driving experience
- Smoother Idling and Acceleration: Carbon cleaning helps improve engine responsiveness, resulting in smoother idling and acceleration.
How often should I get a carbon clean?
The frequency of carbon cleaning depends on various factors, including your driving habits, mileage, the type of fuel used, and the vehicle’s age. As a general guideline, many experts recommend carbon cleaning every 10,000 miles or annually in-line with a service. If you notice a decline in performance, reduced fuel efficiency, or other signs of carbon buildup, it may be time for a cleaning.
