Fuel injectors are vital instruments in your automobile. A faulty fuel injection system can turn your economy car into a gas-guzzler. Gene Brown's Transmission in San Antonio is a full-service auto repair shop, and with a fuel injection service our ASE-certified mechanics can help keep your system in tip-top shape. 

What to Look For

The modern fuel injector evolved from the carburetor, whose function is to mix the right amount of gasoline with the right amount of oxygen and inject into an internal combustion engine. Fuel injectors do essentially the same thing but instead of injecting gasoline from a central source there is typically one injector for each cylinder in a given engine. 
Faulty or dirty fuel injectors can cause your car to act strangely, but generally if drivers know the warning signs of a faulty system they can treat the problem before long-term damage is done. Below are a few things you should look for:

• Rough idling
• Poor performance
• Substantial decrease in fuel efficiency
• Sluggish, uneven acceleration
• Misfiring
• Debris in tank and engine

Possibly the best way to learn the state of your fuel injection system would be to have your automobile flow-tested, which can be conducted through a fuel injection service at any of our various locations in San Antonio. This involves physically removing injectors, inspecting, cleaning, and reinstalling them if they're in good shape. A flow-test can save you a hefty sum of money in addition to providing you insight into the exact state of your fuel system.

Treating Your Car Right Since 1949

The technicians at Gene Brown think it is important that you understand what is going on with your automobile, so in addition to the signs of faulty fuel injection system we think it is important to know a few ways to keep your entire fuel system clean. Foremost, it is important to avoid off-brand gasoline, as they are unlikely to contain additives or detergents that are meant to keep your engine and system clean. Most name-brand gasoline does contain detergent, so there is no benefit to using premium grade fuel if your automobile does not require so. In addition it is important to replace your fuel filter annually. The filter will not solve all of your problems, but can prevent dirt and debris from getting into your engine and clogging your fuel injection system.
