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?8 }/ c7 a i5 j1 ^$ t
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. , S/ \* w5 H [7 F' y8 Q3 N$ W% q : B8 j4 o- y5 p+ p, h- U[ Last edited by 社员都是向阳花 on 2005-6-4 at 08:11 PM]

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):(5 l. O; A5 G- e5 y1 {/ Q6 L3 }' q
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.. v b! @& N5 f H0 v! s

我们这儿在做车子检测之前,要清洗发动机。我非常了解你的意思,我以前也是这么认为的。可是专业的机械师通常有专业设备来观察渗漏状况(例如偏振灯,对付漏油,漏液非常有效。和紫外灯检查体液一样有效)$ l C/ K9 z# A Q+ A- z/ I
