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? 9 {5 J% \6 y. }* A& ^' c" K) ?( W
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. : l3 P6 c' ~" a% T/ C- j: } ! {* F! h1 G4 L$ C; Z- W[ Last edited by 社员都是向阳花 on 2005-6-4 at 08:11 PM]

I'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./ F3 R. `) [4 R6 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):(0 o: Y B6 B, k! h1 u* y4 y
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. 9 t1 B5 l$ z |) s* v! m / R.
