This is hardly just sayin the engine is used a little..drive it and use higher revs..ive suggested a good thrash for curing some things but driving it at high revs when thete could be a serious problem..is not the right thing to do until you know that the engine wont pop... |
Fortunately he has now serviced the car and done the belt but we did not know this when you suggested to drive it hard earlier...
Anyway..now the belts done and that a good thrash might be called for mid gears..high revs prolongued for upto 30mins three or four times..
The ticking you mention may be normal engine noise possibly alternator or similar..but as for the poor acceleration response and hesitation u need to take the icv off and give it a proper clean..strictly follow the HOW TO on the matter and go from there ...respond |

Probably will be more effective to use a few tanks of premium fuels or perhaps fuel additives that cleans the fuel injection system. I don't see how spraying cleaners from the intake can really help but I may be wrong.
That along with oil change or perhaps even engine flush if it is a mess.
What sort of engine noise are you trying to remedy? Engine ticks or tapping noise? |

Hi
Yeah used intake cleaner to decarbon my engine sprayed into intake with revs high did no damage to the engine and no smoke came out.
I don't notice anything different |

I would avoid purposely putting water in my engine...if it gets into the cylinders in a big enuf quantity it can damage the engine...water in the combustion chamber isnt great.
What do your spark plugs look like?? |

A good fuel additive or regular use of a quality petrol should be enough to get rid of any build up. If it is that coked up that these don't work, then it's going to be a strip down job. |
