This is the last video that I planned for the maintenance series. I have been waiting for this one, it is the one I have been wanting to make from the start. If your engine is idling rough, lacking power, or getting worse fuel economy, it could be time for a fuel induction service. In this video, we explain what a fuel induction service does, when it’s needed, and why it matters—especially for direct-injection engines prone to carbon buildup.
🧼 Topics covered:
What a fuel induction service actually cleans
Port vs. direct fuel injection and carbon deposit differences
Symptoms of dirty intake valves and injectors
How induction services improve throttle response and MPG
When and how often to perform a fuel induction service
Why modern engines need more than just fuel additives
Risks of skipping induction service on GDI engines
Whether you drive a Subaru, Toyota, VW, Ford, or Honda, this service can restore lost performance, reduce misfires, and extend engine life.
🔍 Don’t confuse this with a simple fuel additive—we’re talking about professional-grade cleaning of the intake tract and valves.
