Gas prices are soaring, is your vehicle getting the fuel mileage as it should? There are three main reasons that modern vehicles experience a dip in fuel economy:
1.Improper tire pressure – Low tire pressure increases a vehicles’ rolling resistance and lowers fuel economy.
2.Dirty engine Air Filter – When your car can’t breathe it can’t perform.
3.Fuel deposits – Just like you have seen on TV the fuel we run today can cause deposits throughout the engine and fuel system, especially when using fuels that are not rated as “Top Tier”.
Overcoming these is easy, set tire pressures to the proper spec, inspect the air filter often and perform preventative maintenance on the fuel system to keep it clean and performing as it was intended. To help with the last item, Visalia Ford offers a Fuel Induction Service. With this service one of our technicians will:
- Clean the plenum and air intake system
- Clean intake valves and ports
- Remove combustion chamber deposits
By using this service it can:
- Alleviate surge, hesitation and hard starting
For best results this service should be done
every 15,000 miles.
