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? , E1 f! X: U7 z- ]) z. g1 v) V3 M* G q. x" g8 r' r. z
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. 6 ^, r A, a, c: i+ \9 X7 Q9 B! ?

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。5 J2 \( _5 r3 e# _8 L% m: h# W
( X0 X# Q, }! f4 f( L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):(1 B0 y, O& }* q% w! i. `8 }

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.3 r+ U8 @6 T5 G) D7 h, L

我们这儿在做车子检测之前,要清洗发动机。我非常了解你的意思,我以前也是这么认为的。可是专业的机械师通常有专业设备来观察渗漏状况(例如偏振灯,对付漏油,漏液非常有效。和紫外灯检查体液一样有效) 0 q8 f% ~) Q) Y* V . y5 f/ p {* g& @我亲眼目睹我们的机械师要求清洗一辆2004年 alero ,以便确认减震渗漏情况。事实证明球头确实渗漏,而脏的时候他看不出来。
