I have been doing below 3000 rpm for my almost decade old car since new.

 

Finally drove across the causeway in my car for 1st time in June.

 

I redline engine after crossing Tuas chk point and could smell burnt smell in cabin.

 

For 1st !0 km in driving at 150kmh could also small burnt smell in cabin.

 

Thereafter is ok and engine feels _ more lively and quiet alhough there is no improvement in fuel consumption

[Doraemarc]

but my car quite difficult to hit redline leh..... think maybe can only do it up north liao.... hope dun be e suay one kena caught... whahahaha...

 

so means 10km? or 4mins? (10km at speed of 150km/h is 4mins)

Just make yearly trip to KL each year... and follow the speed of the crowd :)... sure clear carbon.

Correct, drive your car up NSH and confirm your car carbon is clear!

For me normally 1st,2nd,3rd gear i will drag till red line to clear carbon.cannot go to 4th gear as speed is already 120km/h

In BITOG, I have seen people strip down their engine to see the insides,

 

some of the engines look like new, they just use good oil.

 

If anyone has any pictures of a clean engine cos they redline it

 

or pictures of engines with lots of carbon cos they keep their revs

 

below 3k, please let me know the link. Thank you.

I normally 1st, 2nd, 3rd gear drag till red line to clear carbon. After that the car will feel less sluggish. :P Did this once every few months! :) PM!
