This specialized equipment is employed to thoroughly cleanse the components responsible for delivering fuel to an engine’s combustion chamber. It introduces cleaning agents directly into the intake system, effectively removing accumulated deposits like carbon and varnish. For example, a technician might connect the device to the throttle body or intake manifold to administer a specialized solvent while the engine is running.
The use of this equipment is important because it can lead to improved engine performance, fuel efficiency, and reduced emissions. Over time, deposits build up within the fuel delivery system, hindering optimal airflow and fuel atomization. This results in decreased power, increased fuel consumption, and elevated levels of harmful pollutants. Its application restores the fuel system to a cleaner state, mitigating these negative effects. The device’s use has grown due to increasingly strict emissions standards and a focus on preventative maintenance.
