I bought a car last day. Today, I saw the car need engine cleanliness on its safety inspection report. Who can tell me the meaning of engine cleanliness? is it a big problem? do I have to do that? direct consequence if not to do that? Manifold condition of the car go bad. I need to change a new one? Who can tell me where to repair car? . Y0 t1 Y2 O& v' }8 a) o$ ]! h8 ?5 C1 O& o' C
Thanks for you guys.
don't know what so called engine cleanliness means, most likely, I guess it's just engine fresh. it's simple and easy, just pour a bottle of fresh fluid, then run the engine for like 20 minutes. after that, change engine oil, that's all. 3 a, \6 Z. c2 j/ B# ?$ H* j8 [& Z

Steeve, . ]4 N8 p- y) T8 d F! c+ d # o% J' \" a' \& S$ BI've got some difficulties to read your questions. To my best knowledge, it seems that the cleanning of your engine is a must if it is an old and dirty car. 6 G0 q* U9 L8 m3 o$ V; G* Q! h/ }! Z' N' J

通常保险公司会要求你做保前检测。机械师往往拒绝肮脏的发动机检测。这如同你到医院去检查身体,往往洗个澡是必要的和礼貌的一样。 % ?7 r1 H& P& @8 b3 a" r4 W- c B. c# S+ Z ~
你可以自己在洗车点清洗发动机,费用是10元左右。但是要注意高压水枪一定要离发动机部件一英尺以上,以防止水流冲进皮带轮和电机的轴承里面,造成永久损害。另外,可能洗完车后发动困难,是由于水汽进入火花塞或者分电器造成的,干了就好了。但如果你发动不了车子,就会尴尬的让拖车拖出washbay, 多花50元。(洗车老板可不想让你占着位置妨碍挣钱):(! f0 U' W. ?8 P( \! w2 v

it could be a engine shampoo as well, like the gentleman mentioned before, but what i'm trying to say is if the mechanic refuse to do a inspection on your vehicle only because of a dirty engine, just walk out and find another shop down the street then. they always wanna oversell their service that you don't even need. ; G7 J% P6 Z) S/ ~ + e$ F) Y" C$ r4 |2 ~: m$ q6 w/ D[ Last edited by 社员都是向阳花 on 2005-6-4 at 08:49 PM]
