How to maintain the vehicle fuel system
by Kenya Jackson OBD EngineerThe fuel system is an important source to provide power for the car to run, a lot of cars with the failures are due to the fuel system is not working smooth, so how to maintain good vehicle maintenance in the fuel system is also an important part of, and in accordance with OBD diagnostic tool test results to distinguish fuel system maintenance methods will be slightly different. According to different engine fuel, the fuel system can be divided into gasoline and diesel vehicles, they should pay attention to what in the maintenance of the process?
Gasoline vehicle maintenance
Data show that: the 50% gasoline engine failure is caused by the fuel
system, and the faults of fuel system and about 50% are caused by
unclean because of fuel, therefore, How to remove the fuel oil in the
water is an important part of the maintenance of diesel vehicles.
Gasoline will have some water, these are some of the extraction of water
produced during some are generated due to external factors. At normal
temperatures, the fuel may dissolve some moisture on their own, but in
the winter the temperature decreases, the water solubility of the
corresponding smaller, the excess amount of water will be dissolved
together. The proportion of water is more than oil, it will slowly
separated out, stay in the oil or filter the bend, causing the oil
supply is not continuous. When the temperature is below the freezing
point of water, the water will freeze coagulation, causing oil is not
continuous.
In addition, gasoline, water will corrode and destroy the fuel supply system components. Therefore, we must timely use of Launch X-431 PAD and Launch X431 IV GX4 Master tool to effectively remove the fuel oil in the water, you can help the effectiveness of some detergents.
Diesel car maintenance
Diesel, for example, diesel fuel contains paraffin, which was dissolved
at normal temperatures in diesel, and serves as lubricating oil and
diesel fuel pump nozzle tip. In the winter, large temperature difference
between morning and evening, and sometimes sudden cooling, paraffin
will crystallization, thus crystals of various units together and form a
"paraffin crystallization network" This network extends to all of the
liquid, the complete control of diesel, resulting in Diesel loss of
mobility, clogged filters, affecting the normal oil supply.
Once this phenomenon, the old traditional way is to spray the tank with
water, you can make diesel fuel temperature, paraffin reintegration into
diesel, but this method is not only time consuming, but can not
completely dissolve paraffin diesel fuel, particularly paraffin oil pump
and filter is inside. In this case, some people will be blended with
gasoline or ethanol in diesel, used this method to solve the problem.
But the engine oil system will cause a lot of negative effects. Such as
excessive wear on the pump nozzle and fuel system components for
corrosion.
The correct approach is actually very simple, as long as you join in gasoline or diesel fuel alcohol into a dedicated high-tech formula additives can, using Autel MaxiSys Pro MS908P and Autel MaxiSys Mini MS905 tools to detect. Meanwhile, in order to better conserve your car, maintenance of good fuel system, a method of maintenance of the regular cleaning is also very important.
