Both diesel and petrol engines suffer from carbon build up but in different areas, therefore they need to be treated and cleaned differently.

Carbon is a by-product of the combustion of fuel in your vehicle. A build-up of carbon can accumulate on the fuel injector, rear of valves, combustion chamber, pistons or catalytic converter. These carbon deposits can create a loss of fuel efficiency which results in poor performance as well as a lot of money wasted on filling up the tank.

Diesel vehicles specifically suffer from build up of carbon at the inlet manifold due to the EGR and engine breathing. We highly recommend a foaming diesel intake clean and oxy-hydrogen carbon clean (brown gas). We also recommend fitting an oil catch-can.

At Blackwood Dyno Tune & Service we can perform all of these services and get your car back to peak performance in no time!

Carbon cleaning is the process of cleaning the fuel injector, combustion chamber, intake manifold, DPF, EGR and other parts of the vehicle where carbon deposits may have accumulated.

To ensure the best possible result when carbon cleaning, our mechanics physically remove the different parts from the engine. These parts are then fully cleaned using our specialised Prostream Carbon Cleaning equipment. All parts are then thoroughly checked to make sure any traces of carbon deposits have been successfully removed, before they are set back in place in the vehicle. 

Carbon can clog the parts of your engine creating a loss in efficiency. Some of the most common issues caused from carbon deposits include:

Loss of fuel efficiency, including over fueling and under fueling, due to a buildup of carbon around the fuel injectors.

High emissions due to carbon deposits in the catalytic converter not being properly removed from the engine.

The engine light may appear due to a build up of carbon in the DPF.

The engine may shake and stall when the vehicle is idling due to a misfire in the system.

Fitted to modern common rail diesel engines in order to meet Australian Design Rules (ADR's), the EGR system is a form of emission control designed to reduce emissions of harmful NOx gases into the environment.

NOx (or Nitrogen Oxide) is produced by an engine during the combustion cycle and is considered harmful to the environment. The EGR recirculates some of this NOx back through to the intake side of the engine to help maintain lower combustion chamber temperatures, minimising the amount of NOx emitted.

As gases from the combustion cycle escape past the Piston Rings (called blow-by gases), they become trapped inside the crankcase, causing pressure to build up, promoting the build up of sludge and shortening the life of the oil. This pressure must be relieved and this objective is achieved via a process known as Positive Crankcase Ventilation through the PCV Valve. While necessary to avoid damage to seals and eventually the engine, this process also releases small amounts of engine oil back into the intake at the same time.

When the oil allowed through by a PCV Valve, turbocharger shaft or air compressor meets the recirculated NOx Gases within the Intake Manifold it becomes a problem. When mixed, a build-up of sticky Carbon deposits is created, slowly solidifying over time and effectively choking the system. EGR valves are also affected by carbon buildup.

Over time this build-up restricts air flow to the point where efficiency of the engine becomes impacted and fuel economy suffers. In very serious cases it could even end up with damaged seals and the engine needing to be replaced.

Carbon is a by-product of the combustion of fuel in your vehicle. A build-up of carbon can accumulate on the fuel injector, rear of valves, combustion chamber, pistons or catalytic converter, effectively choking the engine and resulting in a significant increase of fuel used...

Belts and hoses seem like relatively minor items in the car when compared to the engine or transmission.

However, these little things are what is in charge of the timing of the ignition, cooling of the vehicle and many more functions which help to keep you going. If you are experiencing issues such as faulty starts or an engine running hot, make an appointment with our Repco Authorised Service mechanics at Blackwood Dyno Tune & Service.

Belt and Hose Services from Blackwood Dyno Tune & Service Include:

Power Steering High Pressure Hose Replacement

Power Steering Low Pressure Hose Replacement

Rubber engine cooling system hoses should be replaced every 100,000km, as failure usually starts on the inside of the hose, cracking outwards. Failure will not be noticed until a coolant leak occurs. Rubber belts, especially timing belts, are usually recommended for replacement at 100,000km (some manufacturers have different schedules, sometimes as little as 60,000km).

Belts and hoses: common symptoms and causes

Belts and hoses suffer much wear and tear in a vehicle. These little parts are always in motion and can break down over time. Depending on the conditions which you are often driving in, the life of belts and hoses will differ. Some of the common symptoms and causes of belt and hose issues in a vehicle include:

Car will not start because timing belt has slipped.

Timing in the engine is not functioning properly because of broken teeth on the timing belt.

Squealing sounds from the engine due to belt slipping.

Overheating because of a broken fan belt or faulty coolant hoses.

Our mechanics are trained to always check the status of your belts and hoses. Catching an issue early on can save you a headache later. For routine maintenance or to repair an issue with your belts and hoses, make an appointment at Blackwood Dyno Tune & Service today!

Without these crucial parts the engine would overheat, the transmission would grind to a halt and the car would simply not run...

Landcruiser Timing Belt & Water Pump Replacement

1. This Toyota Landcruiser Prado VZJ95R 1997, came into our workshop to check for a coolant leak under the engine bay.

2. Lifted 4WD vehicle up on hoist, the leak was very evident running down the chassis and coming from timing cover as shown above in image 2. Suspect coolant leaking from water pump.

3. Starting to remove top hose and other components to look inside the timing cover to confirm coolant leak in image 3 below.

4. In image 4 we can see the Timing Cover removed, exposing the water pump and timing belt. Note corrosion evident on inlet and outlet spouts.

5. A view of the engine with timing belt and water pump removed.

6. We removed the leaking water pump from the engine, coolant staining evident around breather hole can be clearly seen in image 6. This should not occur.

7. To remove the water pump, you must remove the timing belt at the same time. As the timing belt was overdue to be replaced on this vehicle, we chose to order the timing belt kit with the water pump. It is more economical to combine both jobs and we checked with the customer first.

8. Our customer decided to replace the top and bottom hoses and radiator at the same time. Image 8 above shows the new cooling system installed and pressure tested, ready for the customers caravanning holiday.

9. What you can't see in the previous photo is the newly installed timing belt kit (incl pulleys and tensioner) and water pump as shown below in image 9...

It's probably a good thing this customer got us to check his Landcruiser over before leaving for his holiday as he can now enjoy his holiday instead of worrying that towing the extra weight of a caravan and all their gear might result in a breakdown.

Our name says it all - Blackwood Dyno Tune & Service are the experts when it comes to Dyno Tuning and performance enhancement.

Dyno Tuning is high tech tune up of your vehicle, specifically the engine, by a suitably qualified mechanic. The term ‘Dyno' comes from the specialised equipment used in the tune up, called a dynamometer. Using a dynamometer, a qualified Blackwood Dyno Tune & Service automotive technician can measure engine speed and torque, which can then be used to calculate engine-power output.

All this can be achieved safely and without your car even leaving the workshop. Dynamometers use rollers to allow the testing of specific speed or torque settings under controlled conditions. This then allows the mechanic performing the Dyno Tune to fine tune your engine based on very specific test results. Adjusting the air/fuel ratio to better suit your type of engine for example, can greatly improve performance yet maintain maximum fuel efficiency.

Many performance components on the market today boast huge horsepower and torque gains...

While individually some of those claims may be realistic, knowing what combinations of parts to use is essential in getting the most from your performance dollars. Using our Two Wheel Chassis Dynomometer, Blackwood Dyno Tune & Service can graph horsepower and torque increases and fine tune those combinations to get the most from the parts being installed while maintaining a realistic Fuel Efficiency.

Blackwood Dyno Tune & Service uses some of the most respected brand names in the industry to tune your vehicle. Our dyno is a 650Kw Dyno Dynamics unit, complete with the latest shootout mode. We have access to all of the latest scan tools to check and reset ECU code operations. A Pico scope also ensures that we get the best results possible. We also clean and test our own injectors, rather than using a 3rd party service, on our own injector test and clean bench.

Our experience has come from building our own race and drag cars and competing with success in competitions where every kilowatt counts, against some of the fastest and most powerful cars around.

Auto Electrical servicing is one of the most important ways of keeping modern cars running efficiently and safely. You should always visit a qualified auto electrician to ensure your vehicle is maintained properly.

It is easy to spot an auto electrical issue when the worst happens. A car which will not start signals an issue with the battery, alternator or spark plugs. But what about when there are more subtle issues going on with your vehicle? There are warning signs which can signal that you need to make a trip to see an auto electrician or suitably qualified mechanic. Some of the top symptoms and causes of auto electrical failure include:

Faulty start due to worn out spark plugs.

Engine will not start due to a broken alternator.

Dead battery due to buildup on the connection cables.

Puddle under a car which will not start due to a leak in the battery.

Engine does not engage due to failed starter and cylinders which haven't been ignited.

Car will not start due to faulty electrical components.

In addition to the traditional systems such as starter motors and simple systems like radios, the electrical systems of modern cars now need to cope with many more components. Such things as modern safety systems & controls and a range of electronic devices such as navigation systems and various entertainment devices all rely on your auto electrical system to function.

Auto Electrical Services from Blackwood Dyno Tune & Service include testing, servicing, refitting and repairing a whole range of electrical components fitted to different types of vehicles including:

Auto Electrical Servicing - common problems

If your vehicle is regularly overheating, your dashboard constantly shows your car is running hotter than normal or you are leaving puddles of coolant where ever you park, it is probably best to have your cooling system reviewed by an expert.

While there are a lot of websites giving advice on how to flush a radiator yourself - we don't recommend it. Today's vehicles can be complex and mistakes like incomplete flushing or changing the coolant in your vehicle without flushing can disturb the sediment and actually cause blockages in your thermostat or radiator. 

 It's best to have your systems inspected regularly by a qualified mechanic, and properly flushed where required, before being refilled with coolant of the right specifications for your vehicle, the system purged of any air pockets, and then the whole system professionally tested again to ensure there are no signs of leaks.

Radiator coolant is also quite toxic and needs to be handled very carefully. It smells sweet, which can be attractive to animals and small children so proper safe storage is very important - having a professional handle this task for you means not handling or having dangerous chemicals around your house. Coolant also needs to be disposed of safely to prevent harming the environment, professional workshops can have the coolant recycled or properly disposed of to ensure minimum impact on the environment.

An overheating car isn't just caused by Summer weather, your engine gets hot, really hot, and it's the radiator and cooling system that works hard to keep your car, and you, from being damaged by all that heat. Coolant is the means by which your cooling system performs this task whilst simultaneously  preventing liquids from freezing and protecting the system from rust as well so it makes sense to pay attention to it.

Given time rust and scale deposits build up and the whole system becomes congested and it becomes less effective at cooling and protecting your car. This build up of rust and debris can damage the important parts of your cooling system including your water pump, radiator, hoses and thermostat, reducing the life of those parts and leading to expensive repairs or replacements in the future.

Your log book provides an outline for how often your cooling system should be flushed. It is generally suggested that you have your system flushed every two years or 40,000 km's whichever comes first. However, your engine size, regional weather, the condition of your current coolant, and the amount of km's driven all affect how often you should replace the coolant in your radiator.

Call Blackwood Dyno Tune & Service now and ask for a FREE No Obligation Radiator / Engine Cooling System Assessment! Bookings are essential as our schedule tends to fill up fast. 

And we can service your cooling system and flush your radiator. Our fully trained expert mechanics will perform a proper radiator flush, using a fluid designed to clear out any build up. When the cooling system is cleaned, the cleansing fluid is removed and fresh coolant added, your car's cooling system will be running like a dream. A radiator flush might be just what your car needs to bring it back to peak performance.

At Blackwood Dyno Tune & Service, you can request a Vehicle Inspection Report for free as part of any minor, major or log book service on your vehicle. This includes checking the level and condition of coolant in your system and the written report will tell you if we feel a radiator flush, coolant replacement or any repairs are advised to maintain the safety and performance of your vehicle.

Blackwood Dyno Tune & Service don't recommend it. Today's vehicles can be complex and mistakes like incomplete flushing or changing the coolant in your vehicle without flushing can disturb the sediment and actually cause blockages in your thermostat or radiator...

Can you flush your own radiator?

When considering purchasing a diesel vehicle, it's crucial to assess whether it aligns with your driving habits. Diesel engines are ideal for long country drives rather than short city trips. If your driving primarily consists of brief urban commutes, you might want to rethink opting for a diesel. Despite the lower fuel costs, the expenses related to maintenance and repairs can outweigh these savings. At Blackwood Dyno Tune & Service in Blackwood, we specialise in maintaining diesel engines to ensure they run efficiently and reliably.

Short trips in diesel vehicles can lead to significant carbon build-up in the engine, causing blockages in critical components like the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) and inlet manifold. Recently, we serviced a 2015 Mazda CX-5 with a 2.2L Turbo Diesel engine that had only covered 180,000 kilometres. The vehicle exhibited severe carbon accumulation, which resulted in blockages and impacted performance. This build-up is comparable to how asthma can restrict breathing; an engine cannot function optimally if it cannot 'breathe.'

At Blackwood Dyno Tune & Service, our technicians perform thorough manifold cleaning to remove carbon deposits, ensuring your engine can operate smoothly. Regular maintenance of this nature is essential to prevent costly repairs and keep your vehicle in top shape.

Automotive Servicing, Tuning and Repairs in Blackwood, South Australia

A common issue we’ve encountered with the Mazda CX-5 diesel models, particularly those exceeding 150,000 kilometres, is the failure of the original plastic water fittings under the inlet manifold. Diesel vibrations can cause these plastic fittings to fracture over time, leading to potential engine overheating and severe damage.

This Mazda CX-5 was towed in to Blackwood Dyno Tune & Service for over heating issues

At Blackwood Dyno Tune & Service in Blackwood, we recommend upgrading these plastic water fittings to more durable metal versions well before 150,000km to avoid overheating, leading to catastrophic engine damage. We've successfully performed this upgrade on multiple vehicles, preventing costly engine replacements. 

Our recent work on a Mazda CX-5 involved replacing the faulty plastic fitting with a robust metal piece, safeguarding the engine from future failures. Our gallery of before-and-after photos showcases the difference the original fitting and the Mazda factory upgrade.

Expert Diesel Maintenance for Mazda CX-5 | Blackwood Dyno Tune & Service in Blackwood

Diesel vehicles are great cars – renowned for their torque (towing capacity) and fuel efficiency. However, they can occasionally present challenges that require expert attention. It’s important to find a mechanic who understands diesel engines and their intricate design. 

At Blackwood Dyno Tune & Service, we are fully equipped and certified to work on, diagnose and repair your diesel vehicles. All our technicians are fully qualified diesel mechanics, certified through Repco’s Auto-Tech training program.

With our diagnostic scan tools and comprehensive knowledge, just know that your diesel vehicles are in the best possible care at Blackwood Dyno Tune & Service. 

Did you know that it is not recommended to travel short distances daily with your diesel engine? The engine does not get warm enough for regeneration to take place, resulting in the diesel particulate filter becoming very quickly full of soot particles. 

A diesel engine draws in large amounts of air to operate efficiently. Over time, carbon deposits build up on the inner walls of the induction system. This carbon (black soot, similar to what you would find in a chimney) restricts air flow, affecting performance, and if left untreated, carbon build up can decrease performance and economy. 

These are 5 parts of your Diesel engine that you should know about:

ECU (Engine Control Unit): This is essentially the vehicle's brain. The diagnostic scan assesses the ECU for any error codes, misconfigurations, or software issues that might affect engine performance.

Fuel Injection System: Diagnostics check the timing, spray pattern, and operation of the injectors to ensure the fuel is being delivered to the engine properly, which is critical for maintaining fuel efficiency and engine performance.

Turbocharger System: Scans the turbocharger for issues related to its operation, including reduced boost pressure and leaks that could result in decreased engine power and increased fuel consumption.

Exhaust System (including DPF): Checks for blockages or malfunctions within the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) and the entire exhaust system, which can lead to increased emissions and reduced engine performance.

Cooling System: Evaluates the operation of the radiator, water pump, and thermostat to prevent overheating, which is vital for preventing engine damage.

Some of the most common issues faced by diesel engines include: 

What other issues can occur with Diesel Engines? 

Poor Fuel Quality: Contaminated or low-quality diesel fuel can lead to clogged fuel injectors and reduced engine performance.

Turbocharger Failure: Turbochargers can fail due to wear and tear, improper maintenance, or foreign objects damaging the turbine, leading to a significant loss of power.

Overheating: Diesel engines can overheat due to cooling system malfunctions, such as a faulty thermostat or a clogged radiator, potentially causing severe engine damage.

Starting Issues: Cold weather or faulty glow plugs can lead to difficulties in starting the engine, as diesel engines rely on heat for the ignition.

EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) Valve Failure: The EGR valve helps lower the vehicle's emissions; however, if it becomes clogged or malfunctions, it can cause engine performance issues and increased emissions.

At Blackwood Dyno Tune & Service, we work towards extending the life of your diesel vehicle, by using our comprehensive knowledge and specialised scan tools, to take a deeper look at the problems occurring. The scan covers crucial components, such as the engine control unit (ECU; essentially the vehicle’s “brain”), fuel injection system, exhaust system, and more, providing a comprehensive health check that is essential for maintaining the vehicles performance. We can save you money by finding the problem early on!

Just know that when you bring your diesel vehicle into us at Blackwood Dyno Tune & Service, it is in the best care. We will communicate with you throughout the entire process and answer any questions you may have!
