Fuel System Cleaning the Professional Way at Top Tech Auto Repair Royal Oak

July 1, 2018

It can even lead to costly repair bills for Royal Oak drivers. So keep your fuel system clean as part of your routine preventive maintenance.

Fuel injectors have replaced carburetors in most of today's vehicles. These injectors deliver better fuel economy than a carburetor, but they can be compromised by rust, dirt and other contaminants. They need to be clean to maintain the correct pressure, spray pattern and volume of delivered fuel so that the vehicle engine can run at peak efficiency.
