As _paralyzed_ has already mentioned

should i replace my car battery with a marine or RV battery? and then charge my lipos off of that while it is idling , is that better? my car has no overheat issues, it warms up and than it stays at perfect operating temp. but this carbon build up thing, should i be concerned?
thank you for your advice and suggestions
