Fuel System Cleaning at Blair's Ferry Automotive
February 7, 2021
Is your vehicle sometimes hard to start early in the morning? When you turn the key, does it hesitate or stutter? If so, the problem could be the result of a dirty fuel system. Your vehicle's fuel system starts with the air filter and ends in the top of your engine. Over time, different parts of the system get dirty, which robs you of performance and hurts your fuel economy.
Most Marion vehicles have fuel injectors, rather than a carburetor. Fuel injection systems have fewer problems and require less adjustment. But they still need to be properly maintained. This is why your owner's manual has a schedule for cleaning your fuel injectors and other parts of your fuel system.
Some Marion residents are interested in buying fuel system cleaners that they can pour into their gas tank. You can do that - and there are lots of great products available that can help maintain an already clean fuel system - but these products cannot do a major cleaning. For that, you need to see Blair's Ferry Automotive. Blair's Ferry Automotive has the professional tools and chemicals to really do a complete service.
Blair's Ferry Automotive uses a process that gives your vehicle a deep, professional fuel system cleaning.

The cleaners also help prevent rust and corrosion in your fuel system and lubricate engine parts.
Fuel system cleaning is just one of those recommended service items that help keep your vehicle running strong. As with all maintenance, it can help avoid repairs that often result from not taking the right preventive steps. Marion residents will notice the difference in how well their vehicle runs. Check with your friendly and knowledgeable pros at Blair's Ferry Automotive to see when your vehicle is scheduled for a fuel system cleaning.
