Ethanol Fuel System Treatment Service
CHEVROLET ETHANOL FUEL SYSTEM TREATMENT
Ethanol Fuel is gasoline that has been blended with ethyl alcohol. Yes, ethyl alcohol is the same chemical found in alcoholic beverages. When mixed with gasoline, it is often referred to as Flex Fuel and comes in various concentrations ranging from E10 with 10% ethanol content to E85 that is 85% ethanol. The increased popularity of Ethanol Fuel is a result of the benefits that it can provide, such as reducing greenhouse gas emissions, environmental protection, and reducing America’s dependence on oil-producing nations. However, ethanol fuel has some disadvantages in certain Chevrolet makes, models, and years, such as increased corrosion, reduced efficiency versus traditional gasoline, and its impact on corn prices as a commodity.

ETHANOL FUEL SYSTEMS
In order to optimize benefits for some vehicles, Ethanol Fuel System Treatments helps offset the flex fuel limitations. Vehicles that are prone to experience corrosion due to ethanol fuel can reduce this result with an Ethanol Fuel System Treatment Service. It is also important to point out that ethanol fuel continues to have a large concentration of traditional gasoline that has additives and detergents that accumulate to form deposits. When deposits can form in any fuel system, fuel system treatment removes and prevents these deposits from fouling the fuel injectors. If this happens, your engine will get choked of the fuel it needs to run efficiently. This means an Ethanol Fuel System Treatment is one of the easiest ways to protect an ethanol fuel system.
Ethanol Fuel System Treatment
Older Chevrolet models benefit from Ethanol Fuel System Treatment because it helps protect some of the parts made of polymer or rubber from corrosion. Newer models with increased innovation on rubber and polymer parts don’t have to worry about this corrosion as they are mostly resistant. However, the major benefit of Ethanol Fuel System Treatment continues to be the reduction of deposit accumulation and helping keep your fuel system clean. If you are a Chevy owner that uses flex fuel and aren’t sure if your vehicle can benefit from Ethanol Fuel System Treatment, give us a call at Feldman Chevrolet of New Hudson and we’ll have an expert GM-certified service advisor answer your questions.
