Professional Fuel System Cleaning
May 15, 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 Gary Knurek GoodYear in Troy. We have the tools and chemicals to do the job right. Our friendly and knowledgeable team at Gary Knurek GoodYear can remove particles, gum and varnish from your fuel system and get those injectors running cleanly and efficiently.
You'll find Gary Knurek GoodYear at 1973 Livernois in Troy, Michigan 48083. Or just give us a call at 248-362-0350 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 Gary Knurek GoodYear can tell you when your car is scheduled for a fuel system cleaning.
