PENGARUH PEMBERSIHAN DEPOSIT KARBON DI RUANG BAKAR TERHADAP DAYA DAN TORSI MESIN 1300 cc

Abstract

The carbon deposit from combustion left in the combustion chamberare thought to have simultaneously effected on the engine’s power and torque. The purpose of this paper to investigate the effect of cleaning carbon deposit in the combustion chamber on the power and torque of the 1300cc. This research used pure experimental method with an independent variable in the form of cleaning carbon deposit from combustion chamber of a 1300 cc engine with acid. The dependent variable were the value of power and torque as measured measuring by the chassis dynotest tool. The results showed that after the carbon deposit cleaning process was carried out, the maximum power of the 1300 cc engine increased from 53 hp to 57 hp in the test in 4th acceleration gear. The maximum torque also increased from 84 Nm to 90 Nm in 3rd acceleration gear and increased from 83 Nm to 87 Nm in 4th gear.
