How can I free up stuck piston rings so they seal properly again?

broken piston rings combustion carbon deposits cause engine problems Maxodyne FTC DecarbonizerMaxodyne FTC DecarbonizerStuck piston rings are caused by carbon deposits in the ring grooves. Hard carbon deposits, a result of deficient combustion efficiency, accumulate in the ring grooves and in effect cement the rings into the grooves. This problem almost entirely prevents the rings from sealing adequately against the cylinder walls and often causes low compression, loss of engine power, excessive oil use, exhaust smoke, and blow-by. In the past, the only way to free up stuck piston rings was to overhaul the engine. However, a proven alternative is to use FTC Decarbonizer. It is a totally safe, very low cost, and a completely effective method of oxidizing (burning off) carbon deposits in piston ring grooves as well as cylinder glaze, injector carbon, etc. Thousands of engines have avoided expensive mechanical overhaul by using this unique fuel catalyst.

Duramax 6.6 stuck rings fixed

“… it runs probably as good as it ever did, if not better!…”

“I’ve got a 2011 Chev Express van with the 6.6 Duramax. It had been gradually getting lower on power over time and just wasn’t running the way it used to. I put it down to stuck rings and a slow turbo. I ran your FTC Decarbonizer and for a while and nothing seemed to change. But around about a thousand miles of using it, it suddenly started to run so much better and had a huge boost in power. I had done nothing else to it except add the FTC Decarbonizer. Now it runs probably as good as it ever did, if not better! I figure it just took a while to burn off all the carbon around the rings and on the turbo. Very happy with the result. It’s much cheaper than an overhaul or a new turbo. By the way, I’m a diesel mechanic. A bunch of my customers are now using it and seeing the same results. Thanks for a great product.”
