Flower Mound FAQ: Poor Fuel Economy

| By:

Every day at Christian Brothers Automotive Flower Mound, our dedicated professionals hear questions from careful drivers in North Texas.

Today, our ASE-certified technicians answer a question we regularly hear regarding the fuel system.

Question: My car seems to use more gas now than it did a couple months ago. Is there anything I can do to fix it?

Answer: Schedule a fuel system cleaning

Sorry to hear about your loss in fuel efficiency, but we’re here to help! Fortunately, all your vehicle may need is a good fuel system cleaning at our auto repair shop in Flower Mound, TX.

A complete fuel system cleaning should be performed on your vehicle every 15,000 miles, or whenever the manufacturer dictates. You can find this information in your owner’s manual. At Christian Brothers Automotive Flower Mound, we thoroughly check the fuel injectors and the air intake to make sure there are no obstructions and everything is clean.

This could have a huge impact on your vehicle’s performance and fuel efficiency. You may even start saving some money at the gas station!

As we drive, dirt and particles are kicked up off the road, where they become airborne and come into contact with our vehicles. Once they work their way into the car, they can be very damaging. That’s why the various automotive systems all have filters.

The fuel system has filters around the fuel tank in order to keep contaminants out. These filters should be routinely replaced in order to stay effective. When dirt and debris get into the system, they dirty the fuel, clog the injectors and even clog the air intake. This is how cars become less efficient. So, be sure to get those filters replaced!

We suggest bringing your vehicle into your local auto shop in North Texas to have it looked at by one of our specialists.
