The EFI is responsible for controlling the flow of fuel to your engine, and any problems with it can result in poor fuel economy and a rough ride...

If you have been noticing that your vehicle is using more fuel than usual, idling roughly, or making backfiring noises, it may be time to consider that your Electronic Fuel Injection System (EFI) is at fault.

But don't worry, the experienced team at Kingsley Auto Care is here to help. With years of expertise and unparalleled skills, we can identify, diagnose, and resolve even the most complicated EFI issues, ensuring that your vehicle runs at peak performance. Whether your car is not running smoothly, is not delivering optimal fuel efficiency, or is stuck in "Limp mode," our conveniently located workshop in Kingsley provides professional and efficient EFI services to keep your car running smoothly.

Modern cars come equipped with Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) systems that are managed by an advanced Electronic Control Unit (ECU). These systems require a high-pressure fuel delivery system to supply the engine with fuel at the correct pressure and flow rate. The ECU relies on up to thirty sensors to collect data about the engine's temperature, airflow, and oxygen levels, which it uses to optimize the fuel delivery system.

Using this information, the ECU determines the perfect air-fuel mixture required for optimal engine performance. Even if there are no visible issues, it is highly recommended to have regular EFI check-ups to reduce fuel costs and minimize exhaust emissions.

EFI issues can manifest themselves in a variety of ways, such as unusually poor fuel economy, rough idling, backfiring, increased fuel usage, reduced performance, difficulty starting the engine, or running after turning off the ignition. These issues can range from a simple fuel injector clog to complex system failures that require specialized diagnostic tools. Thankfully, our Kingsley workshop is equipped with the most up-to-date and advanced diagnostic tools, allowing us to detect, repair, and service even the most complex EFI problems.

To ensure that your EFI system is functioning correctly, it is critical to schedule regular check-ups with qualified mechanics who have the expertise and tools to service or repair your EFI system. This way, you can be confident that your vehicle is performing optimally, and you are saving money on fuel costs.

You may be wondering, what is "Limp Mode"? Limp mode is a safety function that activates when a car's electronic control unit (ECU) detects data that is incorrect or outside of known value ranges, or data it cannot process. It sets a fault code and initiates some form of warning to alert the driver to pull over immediately. Limp mode is designed to allow the car to be driven to a safe location and protect both the car and driver from further issues. However, cars can behave erratically in Limp Mode, so it's crucial to have your vehicle checked by a qualified mechanic, such as those at Kingsley Auto Care, to diagnose any potential EFI or other issues.

Maintaining your car's EFI system in excellent condition is crucial for optimal engine performance and fuel efficiency. Regular EFI check-ups with qualified mechanics can detect and diagnose issues, ensuring that your car runs smoothly and safely. Trust the experts at Kingsley Auto Care to keep your vehicle in top shape and running at its best.
