USING THE LATEST IN CLEANING TECHNOLOGY, THIS SERVICE IS INSTRUMENTAL IN KEEPING YOUR DIRECT INJECTED VEHICLE RUNNING IN TOP FORM. WE USE A CHEMICAL TREATMENT IN THE FUEL TANK. THIS IS FOLLOWED BY A FOAM CLEANER INTRODUCED THROUGH AN ENGINE VACUUM LINE. THIS FOAM HELPS BREAK DOWN POWER ROBBING CARBON THAT BUILDS UP IN YOUR ENGINE OVER TIME, BREAKING THE CARBON INTO VERY SMALL PIECES, WHICH IS THEN REMOVED THROUGH YOUR EXHAUST. THIS IS PERFORMED IN A MULTI-STAGE PROCESS, WHICH ENSURES THAT THERE IS NOT TOO MUCH CARBON REMOVED AT ONCE. AFTER THE VEHICLE IS AT TEMPERATURE, WE SLOWLY INTRODUCE THE FOAMING CLEANER, ABOUT A QUARTER OF THE TOTAL AMOUNT. WE THEN TURN OFF THE VEHICLE FOR APPROXIMATELY 10 MINUTES TO LET IT SOAK AND WORK. THIS PROCESS REPEATS UNTIL THE BOTTLE IS EMPTY. AFTER THE ABOVE IS PERFORMED WE THEN USE A SIMILAR PROCESS TO INTRODUCE A RINSING AGENT INTO THE ENGINE. THIS ENSURES THAT WE GET ALL OF THE POSSIBLE CARBON REMOVED FROM THE ENGINE. LASTLY WE TEST DRIVE THE VEHICLE TO ENSURE POWER HAS BEEN RESTORED.
