Injectors are a primary component on any diesel engine, old or new. Whether you drive a Chevrolet, Ford, or Dodge pickup, clean and fully operational injectors are an absolutely essential aspect of maintaining an efficient and powerful engine. At Elite Automotive LLC in Covington, KY, we offer a variety of injector solutions, from cleaning them, to diagnosing problematic injectors, to replacing them.

Each cylinder in your truck’s engine has its own injector. Injectors are designed to open and close at a set fuel pressure and moment, perfecting the combustion process, and allowing for clean, efficient, uninterrupted power. Whenever an injector doesn’t open and close at the right time (or at all) due to debris, carbon build up, or worn out internal components, it negatively affects fuel consumption, power production, and running quality.

Injectors are also designed to allow a specific amount of fuel through and spray a mist of diesel into the combustion chamber to guarantee a clean and efficient burn. If an injector is dirty or clogged, fuel isn’t distributed correctly or evenly, which also degrades performance. A dirty injector is as bad as a failing injector and will manifest many of the same symptoms.

At Elite Automotive LLC, we diagnose which injectors are problematic, at which point we decide whether to clean them up and restore them back to proper function or replace them altogether. Afterwards, you’ll notice an impressive increase in power and performance, as well as better fuel mileage and decreased carbon buildup.

Injectors are a component that will lead to an array of other issues if neglected. If you’re experiencing injector problems, and for any and all of your other repair and maintenance needs, our technicians have you covered.
