Most modern cars actually have a lot of interesting features that most people don't know exist. One of these is precisely "cylinder purging". Even if someone has heard that such an option exists, he most likely has no idea what exactly it is used for.

Many of our compatriots in the winter are faced with problems when starting the power unit of their car. This can happen for a variety of reasons. The main thing is that after several unsuccessful attempts to start the engine, much more trouble can happen - the candles will simply fill up with fuel. The standard procedure for eliminating a problem of this kind involves dismantling the candles, then drying them and returning them to the place naturally.

Modern manufacturers have foreseen this situation and added the very function of cylinder purging to the injection units. This allows you to solve the issue without any complicated and unnecessary manipulations in the engine compartment. Today this option is available on the vast majority of cars. Moreover, if the owner opens the operating manual, he will surely find there a description of how to activate the purge mode.

It is important to emphasize again: this function is present on most vehicles with fuel injection systems. True, there are a number of Japanese car models from the early 2000s that do not have this function. Most often, blowdown is activated in a few simple steps.

Step one - we sit in the driver's seat, insert the key into the ignition lock.

Step two - press the gas carrion all the way.

Step three - we transfer the key to the starting position and start turning with the starter. We hold the car in this state for 7-10 seconds.

The bottom line is that when these actions are performed, the injectors will not supply fuel. Due to the incoming air, the gasoline will be pushed out of the cylinders, thus cleaning the spark plugs. As soon as the gas pedal is released (and this should be done with the utmost care), the power unit should start.
