Why Walnut Shell Blasting Matters

Modern direct injection engines are prone to carbon buildup because fuel bypasses the intake valves. Over time, this buildup restricts airflow, causing:

  • Poor throttle response

  • Reduced horsepower

  • Increased fuel consumption

  • Check engine lights and misfires

Walnut shell blasting is the solution—non-abrasive, eco-friendly, and highly effective.

Why is Walnut Shell Blasting Necessary for DIT Engines?

In direct injection engines, fuel is sprayed directly into the combustion chamber rather than over the intake valves.

As a result, the intake valves are not regularly cleaned by fuel, leading to the accumulation of carbon deposits over time.

This carbon buildup can restrict airflow, disrupt fuel-air mixture, and negatively impact engine performance.
