Fuel System Service

The fuel system repair services offered by Franklynn Automotive in Littleton, CO are of the highest quality. Your vehicle isn’t going anywhere without gas. Modern fuel systems are complex and there are many reasons why an engine might run badly or not at all. If your engine displays any of the following symptoms there could be a problem with the fuel system:

• Poor drivability (hesitation when accelerating being the most common).
• Reduced power.
• Uneven or lumpy idle.
• Not starting (but turns over eagerly when cranked).
• Check Engine light is on.

All modern engines use fuel injection. (Carburetors went away as emissions standards began rising in the 1970’s.) In fuel injection an injector sprays a precisely metered quantity of gasoline into the intake air. (The newest engines have injectors spray directly into each cylinder.) This mixture of gas and air burns evenly in the combustion chamber to provide the power.

We’re very experienced at diagnosing and solving fuel system problems here at Franklynn Automotive. Sometimes it’s as simple as running some BG cleaning fluid through the system – like those in the video below.

Other times it can be more complicated. If you’re concerned about the way your engine is running or if you need a fuel system repair service in Littleton, CO, call us and we’d be happy to help!
