    Hello Chokers,

    Please browse thorugh the korean car forum regarding carnivals. I have a 2001 carnival with 50k km on the odo and it has no usok. I recently had the intake manifold cleaned for "gunk" accumulation. Dito pa lang solve yung problema. Carbon clean will only clean the fuel system but the gunk accumulation in the intake manifold will still be there.

    Because it gunk accumulation thickens. it will sometimes block the intake valves which translate to lower torque. Have it serviced sa signet mas expert ang mga yan sa issue ng black smoke and loss of power. No need to change the injectors.

    tnx

    Hello Choker,

    Signet is the distributor of Kia. May branch sila sa Mandaluyong Edsa (near boni) and Las pinas (in front of SM southmall). I bought my carnival sa signet las pinas and have it serviced there. labor for the cleaning cost around P460 only.

    This will solve your problem. It would also help to put injector cleaners in your tank once every two months.

    yung additives and all other cleaning solutions are only temporary in nature, as in ngayon malinis, ilang buwan marumi na ulit, kaya mura din since you may have to come back again in the next few months.

    now, calibration is for a long term solution to your smoke problems. do it now, a bit expensive though but you won't come back not until 5 to 7 years again, less if you travel daily from laguna to pampanga.
