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? & y; j' i6 I- ]9 e 6 U9 u- G( X% b! P$ U6 w3 K8 Q& _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. / a% V) X3 S4 n* g- P* o! q) W5 G, h; E $ G7 a* W4 b6 `4 ~7 [[ 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.' N% C7 j6 f! M# r9 B5 Y" S0 |8 G

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。; P" `( s* o# x( J+ b

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.+ Z& s. c5 i T& a; V# ], E
