Currently, many car washs offer a motor washing. Everything seems not complicated. Elements of electric power and ignition system are wrapped with a film, turn off the battery and proceed to cleaning the motor under high water pressure. According to theory, the remnants of oils and other liquids on a hot motor can lead to ignition. Probably, many saw how to smoke drops of oil on a hot manifold. On the other hand, the dirty motor will overheat faster, which leads to a decrease in the viscosity of the oil and to increase the wear of the elements of the power plant. It is not strange, but dirt and oil can also be the cause of interruptions in the operation of each electric unit, and in some cases this can lead to a short circuit. In this case, it is not far from the fire. Surprisingly, a dirty motor creates some difficulties during a technical inspection. Under a layer of pollution and oil, for example, you can not notice the area of oil leakage. But is it necessary to say that it is much more pleasant to work with a clean motor. All of the above definitely has its positive aspects, and high -quality caring for the engine of the machine is simply necessary, but for what reason then many automobile manufacturers urge not to wash the motors without the need for? Everything here is quite simple, since dirt cannot cause the motor as many harm as powerful water flows under high pressure can cause. No sealing can guarantee 100 percent of water penetration. Excessive bathing is simply contraindicated in gasoline units. The old diesel engines with large pressure fuel pumps are least affected. Due to their increased reliability, they can work even in water, is it worth talking about streams of water. Wash or not wash? Definitely, the decision is only for the motorist. Although she would close their eyes to the arguments that were given above, most likely, also should not be. You can wash the motor not only in a specialized car wash, since at the moment there are a lot of different chemistry, which can accelerate this process. In the end, you can cost a proven “grandfather” way. A clean motor, of course, will not lower the waste of fuel, but will help get rid of some troubles in the motor compartment.
