Service Overview

The fuel injectors are part of the fuel supply system of the engine, they usually inject the fuel directly into the cylinders, but in some cars the injectors are situated in the inlet manifold. The injectors diffuse the fuel, which then mixes with the air being let into the engine by the inlet valves and, in turn, the spark plugs will ignite the mixture to combust.

Over time, the fuel injectors can be affected by dirty fuel which will mean that the injectors can clog up. In most cases it means that the fuel lines or fuel tank have started to corrode. Alternatively, it can be that the fuel filter has become ineffective, not filtering out debris as it should. All of this leads to engine misfires and therefore an engine that does not run smoothly.

Yes, a faulty fuel injector can cause the vehicle to experience misfires, a loss in power and acceleration, a reduction in fuel efficiency, and in severe cases can cause stalling or prevent the engine from running at all.

We recommend cleaning fuel injectors at least every 36 months or 45,000 miles to ensure optimal performance and prevent clogging.

One of the most common symptoms of faulty fuel injectors is an extremely violent or rough engine idle. If fuel is not properly provided to the engine cylinder, it will result in a choppy engine when the car is in idle. Fuel injector can crack or break, which will cause a gas leak.
