Fuel System Cleaning
Over time, your entire fuel system can get dirty with deposits. If your car fuel system has deposits, you might see fuel savings of 2% or more by getting your fuel system cleaned. A couple of ways to know if your fuel system is dirty with deposits is if your engine hesitates during acceleration or idles roughly. Most quick lubes, such as Valvoline Instant Oil Change, offer a multi-step fuel cleaning service that helps to restore fuel efficiency.
