Fuel System Cleaning the Professional Way at Tuffy Toledo (Airport Hwy)

December 12, 2022

It can even lead to costly repair bills for Cincinnati drivers. So keep your fuel system clean as part of your routine preventive maintenance.

Fuel injectors have replaced carburetors in most of today's vehicles. These injectors deliver better fuel economy than a carburetor, but they can be compromised by rust, dirt and other contaminants. They need to be clean to maintain the correct pressure, spray pattern and volume of delivered fuel so that the vehicle engine can run at peak efficiency.
