In this video I'll talk about how and where carbon buildup can happen on an engine with Direct Fuel Injection (GDI) or an engine with Port Fuel Injection. What are the symptoms of excessive carbon buildup and how you can diagnose and engine with carbon buildup, also how you can prevent carbon buildup and whether or not engine oil can effect this and last but not least how you can treat or remove carbon buildup from an engine.

    This video was recommended next to a Scotty Kilmer video titled "Never Carbon Clean Your Engine"... who do I believe? 😂
  • @zayturner5075
    Im a technician myself and this is def one of the best thorough cause, symptom, and solution videos.
  • @Jaytriple1
    3:38 "Engineers...." hand motion 😂 señor couldn't keep a straight face through the whole video, neither could I😂
  • @efrainsZ71
    Glad you are back doing videos...that’s awesome 👏🏼
  • @alexandercahoulan6583
    The most informative video I’ve seen on carbon build up. Straight up. Touché sir
  • @christopherhamilton5557
    I really enjoy the content and format of this channel and I doubt I could change a tire. And oh my god RnW, 800,000+ subs!!! Nice work sir!
  • @Chris-jy3dm
    Hey man this is very informative. Back in the 70s I had a cortina with pinking which was the same faults as now with carbon buildup,with leaded fuels. Great channel as always
  • @garymcaleer6112
    This brother, RnW answered a lot of questions I've had for a long time. Although not so pronounced that I "just gots to know," but it's nice to understand the engineering expertise that always trickles down from the military. And hats off to Loveitdownunder 47 for additional insight.

    Good video. You can also get carbon build up from the EGR valve, especially with GDI.
  • @amramq2725
    extremely well explained thanks alot >>>wish u the best from morocco
  • @PhyuckYew
    My car is a PFI. I don't think I'll have to deal with carbon. But I'm still gonna watch the video. It's educational.

    Speaking of using water to de-carbon your engine, I think it would be worthwhile investigating. When I was a young bloke back in the late 60's early 70's there were a heap of aftermarket water injection kits on the market (of course everything was carbies back in those days). It was supposed to increase power but as with all these magic things the results were subjective. However, it is common knowledge that if you have a blown head gasket that's letting coolant (water based liquid) into the combustion chamber, when you take the head off it's easy to identify the cylinder that is affected because it is often quite clean compared to the rest especially if it had been leaking for a while. The water injection systems on the market 'back in the day' were simple and used a water container attached to an adjustable valve that fed a small venturi. The amount of water could be adjusted, and there was never enough to create a compression lock. So if you have a car that has serious carbon buildup it may be worth looking into.

    I love this channel!!!! Thank you for always making such great videos! 🙏👍

    Get a good recirculating oil catch can, And drain it as often as you need to. This will help greatly by condensation the vapors to liquids and trapping them in the can from going into your intake. Also change your PCV valves.
  • @flyboy6258
    You are so very correct. Maintenance is the key to controlling valve carbon buildup. Be diligent or you will have problems.
  • @mckav2358
    excellent explanation of how everything works in an engine. Really appreciated, thanx :)
