Fuel System Basics
Every engine has a fuel system that consists of fuel injectors, a fuel pump and a fuel filter. When you press on the gas pedal, you control how much air and fuel that your engine takes in. This process distributes gasoline to your engine for the combustion process. The components of your fuel injection system then work together to help the fuel travel from the fuel tank to your engine's fuel injector. The injectors provide a precise fuel spray pattern in the cylinder. The spray creates a mixture that is ignited by the spark plugs when they fire. This process then powers your vehicle.
Dirt and debris can clog parts of your fuel system and interfere with the fuel spray pattern. Without the right pattern, fuel can remain unburned. Over time, this causes deposits form in your fuel system, resulting in loss of power, poor gas mileage and other issues with your vehicle. These deposits could even damage other parts of your engine and lead to a complete engine shutdown if not eliminated.
Signs Of Fuel Injector Problems
Here are some of the signs of fuel system problems:
- Hesitation when you push down on the gas
- Lower gas mileage
- Your car doesn’t seem to have power

How Often Do I Need a Fuel Injector Flush?
The frequency of fuel injection cleaning varies depending upon several factors, including:
- How old is your vehicle? Newer cars typically require less frequent fuel injection cleaning because new cars usually get better gas mileage and burn fuel much slower. So, if your car is more than a couple of years old, you might want to have the fuel injectors checked out.
- Do you make frequent short trips? If so, then your car might be more vulnerable to clogged fuel injectors.
- Does your car have high mileage? Vehicles with higher mileage are more susceptible to clogged fuel injectors.
- What does your vehicle's manufacturer recommend? Most manufacturers recommend that fuel injectors be cleaned every 15,000 miles. However, it is always best to check your owner's manual for specific recommendations on your car or truck.
