Signs you may need fuel system repair

Fuel system problems tend to start small and get worse. Catching them early protects expensive parts like injectors and high-pressure pumps, especially on diesels.

• Hard starting or long crank times
• Rough idle, misfires or hesitation
• Loss of power under load or while towing
• Drop in fuel mileage
• Fuel smell or visible leaks

For diesel owners, we also install FASS fuel systems to deliver cleaner fuel to your injectors.

Fuel delivery is an important aspect of your vehicle and the systems it encompasses so maintaining your entire fuel system is integral to making your vehicle last longer. At Midwest Diesel & Automotive, we possess the equipment and ability necessary to care for the fuel systems in modern vehicles, regardless of their complexity as well as classic vehicles.

The days of a single mechanical fuel pump attached to a fuel line are long gone; the last decades have witnessed huge advancements in fuel delivery systems. Computers, sensors, high-pressure electric pumps, fuel injectors, complex fuel lines, electronic injection, and more now dominate the automotive world. Whenever your fuel system is in need of repair or replacement, trust us at Midwest Diesel & Automotive to get the job done right.

We also understand the importance of fuel system service and maintenance. Special chemical treatments and procedures are available to keep your complicated fuel system clean and trouble-free. Have your fuel system treated regularly to avoid inconvenient fuel system issues altogether and keep your car, truck, or SUV running smoothly?

The intervals at which to replace the fuel filters vary from vehicle to vehicle ranging from 20,000 miles to 150,000 miles in some cases. Make sure you know what’s right for your vehicle to maintain reliability and longevity. There also options to increase your fuel performance in some models of cars or trucks that you may want to discuss with us!

Before any service, we consult you to find out what issues or needs you have and if you have any specific concerns such as lower fuel mileage or lack of performance when you do step on the gas pedal. We will give you our recommendations based on the vehicle, driving methods, and ultimately your issues with fuel consumption versus performance.

We can also simply do the standard recommended service for your vehicle! Here it is all about your needs and keeping your vehicle in top running condition so you have more time on the road and less time in a garage!
