The Electronic Fuel Injection system (EFI) is a computer controlled high pressure fuel delivery system in modern vehicles providing the best power production and fuel efficiency possible for your engine - when it is working correctly.

Improved combustion efficiency and control in running the car engine at specific air to fuel ratios, despite variable loads on the engine, allows the EFI system to improve your fuel consumption by using a leaner air to fuel ratio than would otherwise be possible. This significantly increases the thermal efficiency of the engine and reduces brake specific fuel consumption.

If you suspect you have a problem, bring your vehicle in for a no obligation inspection before it gets any worse. We are located in Port Adelaide and also serve customers from the surrounding areas. We offer the following benefits;

EFI is an acronym for Electronic Fuel Injection, the process of delivering fuel from the tank to the engine via direct injection. Problems with fuel injection systems can vary from minor to major concerns. We use/check a wide range of parts including:

Fuel injectors: Electronically controlled valves which control the fuel supply

Fuel Regulator: Sensor which regulates how much fuel is atomized

Sequential firing device: Controls the individual fuel injectors so that they open just before their cylinder for maximum efficiency

Fuel rail: Provides the pressure to the fuel injection system

Mass airflow sensor: Sensor in the engine control unit which measures the amount of air that is coming into the engine

Oxygen sensor: Located in the exhaust system to measure how much fuel is being burned and how much is left

Throttle position: Set to monitor how much air is pushed into the system

Coolant temperature sensor: Maintains the temperature of the engine

Having trouble getting your car started in the morning, even when it's not that cold - You may have a problem with your ignition system

A vehicle's engine generates air and gas resulting in energy for the wheels. A spark is ignited through the combination of air and petrol, otherwise known as the ignition. This ignition runs through a collective effort from the ignition coil, distributor, distributor cap, rotor, plug wires and spark plugs.

Port Adelaide Auto Repairs will check a number of components to determine the cause. This will include the coil, distributor cap, coil wire, electrical connection, fuel pump and fuel filter. Once we have checked all the major compartments, we look for loose starter bolts, bad injectors, faulty cold start valves, chipped ring gear or inconsistencies with the engine's main computer.

Timely Delivery: If we say your car will be ready at a particular day and time, we will fulfil our promise
