Engine Performance Problems? Have Your Fuel Filter Checked & Changed at Our Albuquerque Service Center
While it is one of the lesser-known parts of your Hyundai, your fuel filter plays a critical role in the performance of your engine. As the name implies, it prevents contaminants from entering your engine via the fuel system. But what happens when a fuel filter becomes clogged? Larry H. Miller Hyundai Albuquerque is here to let you know, and help you prevent this simple part from hindering your vehicle's performance.
It's a Filter, After All
Just like any filter, over time your fuel filter will become clogged with junk. That means it is doing its job well. But since you can't quickly see it like an air filter, and it doesn't come with recommendations on mileage limitations like an oil change, your fuel filter is easy to forget about.
What Happens When a Fuel Filter Becomes Clogged?
When your fuel filter fills up with junk, it becomes more difficult for fuel to pass through it cleanly. This can result in sluggish acceleration, weak or inconsistent engine response, and even stalling or hesitation when attempting to get going from a standstill. These issues can be intermittent, so it might take you a while to work out that you have an ongoing problem and not just a fluke situation.
