JLM's direct injection valve cleaner is an engine treatment that clears carbon from the combustion chamber and piston crown and helps bring back proper airflow into the engine. It is made for petrol, GDI, hybrid and diesel engines, and suits a car that has turned lumpy at idle or hesitant because of carbon build-up on the intake side.

Good to know

• Why do direct injection engines need this? In a GDI engine the fuel goes straight into the cylinder instead of washing over the inlet valves, so carbon can slowly build up there and choke the airflow.
• Will it fix every rough idle? Only one caused by carbon; misfires from a coil, plug, injector or air leak need finding with a diagnostic check first, or the cleaner will be wasted.
• How do I use it safely? Follow the can's directions to the letter, keep it away from a hot exhaust, work outdoors or in a well ventilated space, and run the engine afterwards as the can directs.

Which one?

If the warning is for a clogged diesel or petrol particulate filter rather than carbon in the engine, the JLM Dpf/Gpd Foam Cleaner (J02224) is the product for the exhaust side.
