One of the downsides to GDI is not having fuel pass through your inlet ports, which means oil vapours from the PCV system are not being 'washed' away by the fuel. The result of this is a tremendous amount of carbon build up in your inlet ports of your cylinder head, reducing the efficiency of your engine which means a reduction in power, fuel economy and a rough running engine.

Burnishing wood is one of the easiest and cheapest methods of smoothening wood surfaces. It is also probably the cleanest because there’s no dust or shavings.

Walnut shell tumbling media can be used in both vibrating and rotary tumblers. The rounded pellets are tough but non-abrasive in character and make an excellent heat conductor. When the time to clean and polish a batch of shell casing increases to about twice as long as the first run with that media, it is a good time to replace your media. We briefly touched on Walnut Blasting in our previous blog post, The Top 10 Engine Improvements For The 2.0 TFSI (EA113) , but we want to dig deeper and really demonstrate what the process involves, how it benefits and whether it is suitable for your engine. Finally, the walnut blasting machine utilises a vacuum to remove the walnut shells and carbon from the inlet port and allows consistent flow of fresh walnut shells into the chamber. Untreated shells can also help reduce a greenish-brown residue that is sometimes left on stones during polishing by finer grits of media such as corncobs or red rouge. This coloration can be caused by copper from metal alloys, and can be reduced by using walnut shells as the coarser media will remove this copper residue before it becomes a problem.It’s important to keep in mind that the type of shell you choose will have an impact on the final results so it’s important to experiment with both types to see which works best for your needs.

The best way to ensure you have uniform grit of sand granules is to pass them through a sifter. Sifting sand particles allows you to have different grit levels –from coarse to extra fine, enabling you to sand your wooden project to perfection. Sand with the wood grain

Walnut shells are a good medium, abrasive enough to lift carbon from a surface, but soft enough to not impact or damage the surface of the engines components such as the valves or the aluminium cylinder head. They are also a combustible material, so in the unlikely event that any go into the combustion chamber, it won't matter as it will burn off once the engine is running.
