This is also why for some cars it works and for some it does not - as it depends on type of ECU as well as individual driver. This is why the "Italian tune up" feels to have worked in modern engines as well. Not only are the air-fuel mixtures changed but also parameters such as throttle response and ignition timing.

A high demand driver input re-trains the ECU to change air-fuel mixtures accordingly so that the engine produces the required output. Then how can carbon build up inside at all in the first place?įact is that modern ECUs learn to respond to required output vs driver input over time.

Plus with anti-knock sensors retarding ignition timing, ECUs can go leaner and leaner to promote fuel economy and reduce emissions. However for modern engines with ECU controlled fuel injection the combustion mixtures are so finely controlled you can literally see water coming out of the exhaust on so many petrol vehicles. I personally totally observed this in our old carburetted Omni !!įor engines like the Rotary Engine an Italian tune up is almost mandatory if you are interested in keeping your engine and your apex seals fine and dandy. Its obvious that a proper Italian tune up would do wonders for the car since the higher density petrol mix would clean inlet ports and high temperature would burn off carbon. Copious amounts of carbon buildup was a real problem since it would result in engine knocking (due to higher compression ratio as a result of carbon build up on top of piston) and sluggish response due to improper air flow around valves and exhaust restriction (the rough surface of carbon build up further hampering air flow). In older cars where the air-fuel mixture was controlled by a carburetor, continuous low rpm running would indeed result in build up of carbon on various parts of the engine - more specifically - on top of pistons, around the valves, just outside the exhaust port.
This is an interesting topic with multiple answers. Zen, Baleno, City, Safari and now Ecosport. I have been doing this all my current and previous cars. After such drives, I can feel my car responding quickly to throttle inputs. After a few thousand Kms, I can feel my car feeling lethargic to throttle inputs.Īt every 3K Kms I drive for around 50Kms on wide empty roads aggressively. It does work, I am a sedate driver with my highway speeds varying between 80-100Kmph. Of course, it's even better if you have more than just anecdotal evidence Would love to hear others' views on this. Is there a genuine problem of carbon deposit build up in cars whose engines are always driven in a low stress manner? More specifically, is it a problem in modern engines that have combustion down to a near exact science? Some fuels with additives also claim to remove the same carbon deposits, albeit through a chemical treatment instead of burning them. The name comes from Ferrari, whose mechanics took customer cars out onto the racetrack for a few hot laps at the end of which, the cars reportedly performed better.Ĭall me a cynic but this sounds like a great excuse for a Ferrari mechanic to have some fun with a customer car (mixed in with a liberal dose of confirmation bias). The claim is that it burns out deposits in the combustion chamber, the injectors and the exhaust system.

For those who haven't heard of this, the idea of the Italian tune up is to run your engine under full throttle and full load for an extended period.
