Walnut blasting is used to clean carbon deposits from the intake valves and cylinder head intake tracts of both Petrol and Diesel engines, particularly those with direct injection systems.

This process involves using finely crushed walnut shells propelled by compressed air to dislodge the carbon buildup, restoring lost performance and improving engine efficiency.

Process:

1. Removal of the Intake Manifold assembly allowing access to the Intake valves and Cylinder Head tracts.

2. Using specialist equipment compressed air propels the walnut shells, which impact the carbon deposits and dislodge them.

3. The equipment at the same time vacuums the walnut shells and dislodged carbon from the engine.

Why is it needed?

Direct injection engines, like many Direct Injection Engines, are prone to carbon build up on the intake valves because the fuel doesn't wash over them, unlike in older engine designs. This build up can lead to: Reduced engine performance, Rough idling, Hesitation and poor throttle response, and Decreased fuel efficiency.

Benefits of walnut blasting:

1. Restores lost power and performance:

By removing carbon buildup, walnut blasting can help restore your engine to its optimal performance.

2. Improves fuel efficiency:

Cleaner intake valves allow for better airflow, potentially leading to improved fuel consumption.

3. Smoother engine operation:

Reduced carbon deposits can result in a smoother idle and more responsive throttle.

4. Safe and non-damaging:

Walnut shells are softer than metal components, making it a safe method for cleaning without causing damage.
