At Scotty Muffler & Auto Repair in Lake Alfred, FL, we won’t recommend fuel injection services unless an inspection deems it necessary.
Although today’s vehicles are designed to need less maintenance than in the past, there are times when your vehicle is going to need more than the basic maintenance, such as an oil change. Fuel injection services are often outlined in your vehicle’s owner’s manual to be done when your vehicle has reached a certain mileage, but there are also signs that it might be needed sooner than that.
As your vehicle is driven, its fuel systems experience a buildup of various things, such as carbon deposits and dirt. How much buildup your car accumulates will depend on a number of factors, including location and quality of the roads. For example, cars and trucks that are driven on dirt roads and off road obviously incur more buildup.
At Scotty Muffler & Auto Repair in Lake Alfred, FL, we won’t recommend fuel injection services unless an inspection deems it necessary. Some of the symptoms your vehicle could exhibit that are signs it is time for fuel injection services are poor acceleration, hesitation, rough idle, poor fuel mileage, engine pinging, lurching, poor performance, and stalling often. These are all signs that buildup is keeping your vehicle from operating properly. We can also perform fuel injection services even if none of these conditions exist, but you want to know that your vehicle is able to get the best fuel mileage possible and know you are doing your part to reduce air pollution.
Fuel injection services include cleaning the fuel injectors and other components, as well as decarbonizing others, and then following with an exhaust emissions test.
