The Importance of Fuel System Maintenance
Your fuel system affects many components and functions of your vehicle from how well the engine performs to your MPG on the highway. To keep it in top shape, bring your vehicle to the Huntington Beach Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM Service Center, which is located within convenient reach of Fountain Valley, Garden Grove, Long Beach, Newport Beach, and Westminster.
About Fuel System Maintenance
The major parts of your fuel system that handle delivering the fuel include the gas tank, the transfer pump, fuel system filtration products, the injection pump assembly, and the injectors. As it functions, this system inevitably becomes contaminated with inorganic elements, micro-organisms like algae, and plain water. Because of their abrasive and unyielding composition, both water and inorganic contaminants comprise the major sources of damage to fuel system parts. These types of substances usually form up to 20 percent of the materials caught by the fuel filter.
Contamination can wear out and corrode the transfer and injection pumps, which in turn reduces pressure and the flow of fuel. You'll experience this as a hard start. Unnecessary wear in the injector tips contribute to inefficient spray patterns and bad fuel economy. Substances contributing to this wear include metals, scale, rust, and dirt.
Keeping the fuel tank well-maintained demands periodic inspection for free water in the tank, visual examination of the tank exterior and connections for wear and rust. If the tanks show contamination, it must be fully drained, thoroughly cleaned, rinsed of any cleaning solutions, and then filled again with clean fuel.
