Why do I need a fuel induction service?
As cars begin to age, they start to have fuel deposits build up and affect the engine performance. Some signs of this happening include lower fuel performance, sluggish speed up or your vehicle running differently in general.
What does the fuel induction service do?
This maintenance service is a procedure done on your engine. What the mechanic working on your vehicle will do is clean the air intake valves, fuel injectors and throttle body. If you haven’t heard of the throttle body before, it directly links to your acceleration pedal, which is why your vehicle may be sluggish when the fuel deposits build up.
Should I get a fuel induction service?
After a while, the fuel deposits could lead to damage to your engine. Engine repair will be a lot more costly compared to a preventative maintenance service like having the fuel induction cleaned out.
