Minor Fuel System Cleaning

When to Visit Car Craft Automotive for Minor Fuel System Cleaning

Fuel injectors deliver fuel to the engine’s combustion chamber by spraying a fine mist onto the back of an intake valve. If you can imagine an aerosol spray can being sprayed multiple times per second in the engine, then you can understand the function of the injector.

However, just like an aerosol can, these injectors can get clogged – by dirt, gums and varnishes from the fuel. When this happens, the spray pattern of the fuel is affected. This means wasted fuel, decreased mileage and decreased performance and engine response.

Another concern you may have been condensation. Typically, due to condensation in your engine, as much as 4-6 ounces of moisture can build up in a fuel system over time. This water in your fuel can cause trouble for the fuel system and reduce the lubrication of the engine.
