We record live data before starting, clean the injectors using the method appropriate to your injection system, replace the fuel filter where due, then recheck live data and confirm the improvement in idle quality and fuelling.
Fuel injectors spray through openings small enough that a modest deposit changes the spray pattern significantly. Instead of a fine mist, you get a stream or an uneven cone, and fuel that is not properly atomised does not burn properly. The result is a rough idle, hesitation and rising consumption. Cleaning often restores the pattern entirely, which makes it worth trying before replacement. Michanic cleans fuel injectors at your home or office.
Poor atomisation is the practical problem with a dirty injector. Fuel delivered as a stream rather than a mist does not mix properly with air, so combustion is incomplete, which costs power and economy and sends unburnt fuel into the exhaust. Over time that unburnt fuel loads the catalytic converter or the particulate filter and washes oil from the cylinder bore. On direct injection petrol engines there is a second issue: because fuel no longer washes over the intake valves, carbon builds there too and needs separate attention.
