Four tricks to pollute your car less

The current situation of pollution in cities is causing conditions such as:
orunfavorable air quality lead to health problems, but also to weather events that have never been seen before due to climate change.

He is also gaining weight.
environmental awareness, so it can be seen that sustainable driving is increasingly present in our lives. In this sense, improper use and maintenance of the vehicle can cause our car to emit greenhouse gases and damage our environment and our planet.

Oscaro’s specialists offer us four keys to pollute our vehicle less and to help protect the environment.

First of all, it emphasizes the importance of examining the EGR valve (exhaust gas recirculation or exhaust gas recirculation in Spanish). It is located between the intake manifold and the exhaust manifold and is responsible for recirculating some of the gases coming from the exhaust to the intake. Namely,
reintroduces smoke from engine combustion in the cylinders to reduce emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx), which are responsible for ozone pollution in the atmosphere. If the valve accumulates debris, the intake air will exit through the exhaust, causing an air-fuel mixture, loss of performance and high fuel consumption. To avoid this, it will be necessary to carry out regular carbon cleaning. This way you pollute less and prevent malfunctions.

Check the battery and ignition system. The plugs provide
produce ignition spark to start the vehicle. It is important that these are in good condition to avoid misfires that lead to increased pollution through increased fuel consumption. In this way, they generate efficient ignition and reduce the pollution emitted by the vehicle.

The air conditioning filter is dirty, so
replace air filters Not only does it improve the air conditioning system and make the engine cleaner, but it also reduces fuel consumption, which will lead to a lower concentration of toxic gases that are harmful to the environment. So, to contribute to the care of the planet, it is recommended to replace it every six months.

Finally, we must not forget the tires, because they can pollute even more than the engine. car wheels
They are made of rubber that when worn, plastic polymers are released which, through rain or through the air, are eventually dragged into seas and oceans. To avoid this, make sure your tires are in top condition and at the correct pressure by checking them monthly. Replace them with new ones if necessary to make driving more efficient and avoid road shock.
