What Our Customers Say
Went in for an oil change on my Subaru. I decided to do the fuel injector cleaner for an extra $20 and it really helped. Car feels smooth again. Service staff was friendly. The oil change took about an hour, which seems like the average wait time at any other shop. Overall they did a good job and will definitely take my car back again for future services.Orange, Katella Avenue
Shoutout to Johnny for taking such good care of my daughter when she took her Escape in for a fuel injection cleaning. He discovered the car had major problems and gave her valuable advice on handling the problem. Johnny is trustworthy and knowledgeable. We’re not taking our vehicles anywhere else from now on. Thank you Johnny for taking care of my daughter.Pep Boys Everett
: Had a problem with a battery and mounting bracket. They repaired it in an hour. Also, had a bad fuel system and fuel injector problem 1 ½ years ago. The car was failing a smog test. They repaired it and it’s been running smoothly like a new car since.Pep Boys Clairemont
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is fuel service?
A complete fuel system cleaning removes dirt, varnish, and carbon deposits from the entire fuel system, including the air intake, valves, injectors, and combustion chamber. These naturally occurring deposits can build up more quickly in modern engines and may cause:
- Reduced fuel economy
- Reduced engine performance
- Increased tailpipe emissions
- Drivability issues like rough idling, hesitation, or misfires
- Shorter lifespan of O2 sensors and catalytic converters
- Increased risk of costly engine repairs
What are the benefits of having a fuel system cleaning service?
A fuel system cleaning can improve fuel efficiency, restore engine performance, and reduce harmful emissions. The service targets carbon buildup throughout your fuel system:
- Fuel injection cleaning focuses on the injectors and fuel lines that deliver fuel into the combustion chamber.
- Fuel induction cleaning removes carbon from the throttle body, air intake valves, and intake manifold, improving airflow for combustion.
How often should I get a fuel system cleaning?
Periodic fuel system cleaning can help maintain optimal engine performance and is typically recommended based on your vehicle manufacturer’s maintenance schedule. If you’re experiencing drivability issues or reduced fuel efficiency, it may be time for service. A Pep Boys technician near you can inspect your system and recommend the right interval for your vehicle.
