Does Changing a Fuel Filter Improve Fuel Efficiency?
As fuel prices are so high, many drivers are finding ways to improve fuel efficiency. Replacing a clogged fuel filter is a great place to start. Changing your fuel filter avoids unnecessary strain on the fuel system, improving fuel efficiency.
Clogged Fuel Filter = Poor Fuel Efficiency
A clogged fuel filter allows impurities to flow into the engine via the fuel. Clogged fuel filters cause engine damage, prevent smooth acceleration and decrease fuel efficiency.
Not only will servicing your fuel filter keep your fuel finance low, but these vital services will also save you the hassle and costs of engine damage that will otherwise come later down the line.
Aim to service your fuel filter at least every other year. Manufacturers recommend different intervals for fuel filter replacements. This depends on the make and model of the vehicle. Check the manufacturer recommendation for your car in your owner’s manual.
