Professional Fuel System Cleaning
July 19, 2020
Getting adequate fuel to your engine is very important for performance, fuel economy and safety. In order to accomplish this, your fuel system needs to be clean.
Today's production cars have fuel injectors, rather than a carburetor. The injectors need to be cleaned from time to time in order to deliver the fuel with the correct pressure, spray pattern and volume.
Troy drivers can buy fuel system cleaners that you pour into your gas tank to help maintain an already clean fuel system; however, they can't do a major cleaning. For that, you need to see Auto Lab Troy in Troy. We have the tools and chemicals to do the job right. Our friendly and knowledgeable team at Auto Lab Troy can remove particles, gum and varnish from your fuel system and get those injectors running cleanly and efficiently.
You'll find Auto Lab Troy at 2790 West Maple Rd. in Troy, Michigan 48084. Or just give us a call at (248) 643-7690 to schedule an appointment.
You'll enjoy more power, better fuel economy and reduced exhaust emissions. The cleaners also help prevent rust and corrosion in your fuel system and lubricate engine parts.
And, as with all maintenance, it can help prevent repairs that can happen because you didn't take preventative steps. Our advisors at Auto Lab Troy can tell you when your car is scheduled for a fuel system cleaning.
