Dear Mike,
I’m in need of some car advice. Lately, I’ve been noticing that my car’s fuel economy and overall performance has taken a significant dip. I used to get a lot more miles out of my tank, but now I’m filling up more frequently. Additionally, my car seems sluggish and struggles to accelerate as it used to.
I’ve been maintaining my car regularly, but I’m not sure what could be causing this issue. Do you have any suggestions on what could be causing this decline in fuel economy and performance? And more importantly, what can I do to fix it?
Thanks in advance,
Sincerely,
Esmeralda
Dear Esmeralda,
Thanks for reaching out to me with your car concerns. Based on what you’ve described, I have a hunch that your car might be experiencing carbon deposits within the engine. Modern fuels with ethanol tend to create such deposits over time, which can rob your car of fuel efficiency and power.
But have no fear, there is a solution to your problem. As you’ve mentioned, the best way to address this issue is to have a fuel injection and emission system service completed by your dealer or service provider. This service will clean the fuel and emission system of your car, restoring its performance and improving its fuel economy.
Now, I know what you might be thinking – is this service really necessary? Can’t I just add some fuel injector cleaner to my gas tank and call it a day? While adding fuel injector cleaner is a quick and easy solution, it’s not as effective as a professional cleaning service. These cleaners aren’t always strong enough to remove tough carbon deposits that have built up over time.
Instead, a terra clean fuel system service is the most effective way to tackle this issue. The machine hooks up directly to your car’s fuel system and utilizes cleaning canisters to remove carbon deposits, leaving your engine just like new. This service not only restores power and fuel efficiency but also reduces toxic emissions, making it a win-win for both you and the environment.
But how can you prevent this issue from happening in the first place? Well, one simple way is to use top-tier gasoline. These fuels typically contain detergents that help prevent carbon build-up. Another way is to maintain regular oil changes and air filter replacements, as dirty oil and filters can exacerbate the issue.
In addition to cleaning your fuel and emission systems, it’s important to maintain your car regularly overall. Keep your tires properly inflated, align your wheels as necessary, and follow your manufacturer’s recommended maintenance schedule. By taking care of your car, you’ll not only prevent future issues but also prolong the life of your vehicle.
So, Esmeralda, rest assured that your car’s performance and fuel efficiency can be restored with a professional fuel injection and emission system service. The next time you’re at your dealership or service provider, consider asking for a terra clean fuel system service to get your car running like new again.
Best of luck to you and your car!
