Direct injected vehicles have one major downside over port-injected engines, which is that carbon deposits can build up after some time, requiring them to be removed at regular intervals through the lifespan of the engine. The most effective and common approach to do this is the utilisation of Walnut Shells in a approach typically referred to as Walnut Blasting. Walnut blasting is when crushed and graded walnut shells are blown in to the vehicle’s engine (intake valve) using an air compressor. It works like a sand blaster getting rid of the carbon deposits in the surface being blasted. Walnut blasting is recognised by most mechanics as among the safest and most economical ways of removing carbon deposits from your car’s intake manifold and intake valves. Nearly all direct-injected engines will require this de-carbonisation procedure finished at frequent intervals throughout the lifespan of the vehicle’s engine.
