Diesel Engines

Although diesel engines don’t require tune-ups and tend to last longer than gasoline engines, they require regular maintenance. Typical maintenance tasks include:

• Changing the oil & filter
• Changing the air filter
• Changing the fuel filter
• Bleeding the fuel system
• Draining the water separators
• Refilling the urea injection system

Fuel Injection

Fuel injection is a system for admitting fuel into an engine. Since 1990, fuel injectors have completely replaced carburetors as the primary means of getting gasoline into the engine. A fuel injector atomizes the fuel by forcibly pumping it throughs a small nozzle (under high pressure). Failure of the fuel injection system means poor performance and ultimately destroys the engine.

Make sure your vehicle’s fuel injection system is maintained properly. For all your fuel injection maintenance and replacement needs, call 520-807-2886 or visit Griffith Automotive Repair today.

Ignition Repair

An ignition system is a system for igniting (using an electric spark) a mixture of fuel and air in a gasoline engine. A properly working ignition system means a properly starting engine and high performance from your car. For all your ignition system maintenance and replacement needs, call or visit Griffith Automotive Repair today.

Ignition Wires & Cables

Ignition cables, also known as spark plug wires, are an important part of your car’s ignition system. They transfer the spark from the ignition coil to spark plugs that ignite the mixture of fuel and air. The mixture starts the engine. Over time, ignition wires and cables get weak and break down. This makes it impossible for the spark to reach the engine cylinders. This results in the engine misfiring. The car will eventually fail to start. If it does start, it will run poorly.

Common symptoms of faulty ignition cables and wires are: poor gas mileage, engine misfires, engine light is on, and the engine may vibrate. If your car needs new ignition cables and wires, call or visit Griffith Automotive Repair in Tucson, AZ. Here, you will have the wires and cables changed by a top-rated mechanic.

Oil, Lube, & Filter

Your car relies on oil, lube, and oil filters to keep running smoothly. Oil helps in lubricating, cooling, and cleaning the internal engine components. With time, motor oil becomes contaminated. Your car needs an oil, lube, and filter change every three months (or 3,000 miles). When it is time for a lube, oil, or filter change, take your vehicle to Griffith Automotive Repair in Tucson, AZ.

Spark Plugs

A spark plug delivers the ignition systems’ electric current to the combustion chamber. Spark plugs that haven’t been changed for a long time can cause ignition problems. At Griffith Automotive Repair, we have automotive experts who will check and replace your spark plugs. For all your spark plug repair or replacement needs, call (520) 807-2886 or visit Griffith Automotive Repair today.
