Clean your Injector, Fix your MPG




Gas prices are fluctuating, as always, and are pretty high for most. We have it a little better  than some parts of the country here in Southwestern, MO…but they are still high for our taste. 

There is a great way to help beat the prices with better miles per gallon – get your fuel system cleaned out!  It’s all about deposits that build up in there that reduces your fuel economy. How do they get in there? Improper maintenance, changing weather conditions that are drastic, stop and go traffic are just a few. 

Cleaning out your fuel system is a 3 stage process. First, carbon deposits are removed. Second, a clean out of the fuel tank pushes everything out of the fuel system (the lines and the pump). It also hits the fuel injectors. And the third stage feeds off the second where the fuel injector tips get cleaned.

Here’s where the important part of the fuel system cleaning comes into play. If any fuel injector is even partially clogged, and remember, each cylinder has an injector, you are wasting fuel and, therefore, wasting money. If an injector goes bad from deposits, you could be looking at $400 to repair…that’s just one injector!

Consider a fuel system cleaning every 15,000 miles. Save money at the gas station today, save money on maintenance and repair later.
