Fuel Injectors

July 28, 2017

In very simple terms, a fuel injector is a valve that squirts fuel into your engine. Your engine control computer tells the fuel injector how much fuel to deliver as well as the precise time it should be delivered. Of course this happens thousands of times a minute. High temperatures under your hood and variations in gas quality cause fuel injectors to be fouled with wax, dirt, water additives and carbon. Injectors can become partially clogged, preventing them from delivering the proper amount of fuel at the correct pressure. When your vehicles injectors are dirty, the fuel doesn’t burn as efficiently resulting in poor fuel economy and loss of power. So it’s important to keep your fuel injectors clean.

We can perform a full fuel system service for you at Weldon Spring Automotive in which the fuel injectors are cleaned so that they operate properly and deliver the right amount of fuel at the right time. Drivers should remember that proper maintenance of their fuel system means that they will spend less on gas, enjoy strong performance and prevent costly repairs down the road.

Please just give us a call and we will set you up with a good time for you to come in and get it checked out.

Thank you!
