Fuel Injections

The fuel injection system of your car or truck is responsible for delivering a proper air/fuel mixture to the engine. The fuel tank holds the gas, the fuel pump delivers it, and the fuel injector is what places it.

The carburetor is what used to do the job of the fuel injector, but was replaced by the fuel injector because of how thoroughly the fuel injector eclipsed the carburetor. This is so because the carburetor cannot match the high pressure fuel injection system, which uses a narrow opening to force fuel through at a very high rate.

Because the opening is so narrow, the fuel injector is susceptible to blockage from deposits and sediments in the oil, especially if your fuel filter is broken. If you experience trouble starting your car, sluggish response when you press on the accelerator, odd sounds, or engine stalls, you might have a fuel injector problem. An EFI is merely a fuel injection system that works electronically rather than mechanically. EFI stands for electronic fuel injection.
