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.; M* ~+ p4 n4 G

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.9 ^9 A% D) N% u

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):( 7 `6 a2 d1 `* X' g3 `# Q0 x$ E1 t5 _ e. R1 D- Y, p
专业清洗大约40元。* Y' Q4 B' z8 Q6 @) A
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.

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)( K. C) I& E/ a+ ~" j1 |
