When a vehicle seems to lose power, or is not getting enough power when you stomp down on the gas pedal it is not only annoying, it can be dangerous. Pulling out onto a highway or across a busy intersection, only to have the vehicle hesitate or stall can lead to a perilous situation.

In most cases a lack of power can be traced back to a fuel system malfunction. Issues can range from a leaking fuel line to a bad fuel pump. Regardless of the cause, an engine that is not getting enough power should be serviced immediately.

How this system works:

The fuel system supplies fuel to the engine. The combustion chamber is where fuel is mixed with air, atomized and then ignited. Fuel systems vary depending on the vehicle but they all have the same basic components.

Fuel is stored in the gas tank and a fuel pump pushes fuel through the fuel lines to a fuel filter and then into the fuel injectors. On older vehicles the fuel is delivered to the carburetor and throttle body injection system. The fuel injectors spray fuel into the cylinder where it mixes with air and ignites during compression. The resulting explosion drives the pistons.

Common reasons for this to happen:

  • Defective Fuel Pump or Filter: The fuel pump supplies the engine with fuel and if it malfunctioning the car will experience a loss of power. Over time fuel pumps can wear out or become clogged with contaminants, which prevents it from pushing fuel to the injectors. This can cause the vehicle to sputter at high speeds, stall, or hesitate during acceleration. A clogged fuel filter can also cause these problems. Fuel filters should be changed on a regular schedule.

  • Clogged or Bad Fuel Injector: Like a fuel pump, injectors can become clogged due to fuel contaminates, hydrocarbons and additives. A clogged injector will degrade performance and the engine will feel like it is not getting enough power. It can also make the vehicle hard to start, idle roughly and effect fuel consumption.

  • Leaking Fuel Line: A leaking fuel line will not provide enough fuel to the injectors, which can result in a lack of power. If there is a strong smell of fuel in the cabin of the car or a puddle of fuel underneath the vehicle a fuel line issue is usually the problem. This should be addressed immediately.

  • Vacuum Leak: A vacuum leak can affect the computers ability to properly regulate the fuel to air ratio, which can cause a lack of power. In most cases, a vacuum leak will trigger the Check Engine light to come on.

  • Dirty Airflow Sensor: An airflow sensor detects the mass of air that is entering the fuel injection system and passes that information to the engine’s computer so it can correctly deliver the right amount of fuel. A failing or dirty airflow sensor will send the wrong signals to the computer. A lack of power during acceleration is a common symptom. This problem will also trigger a Check Engine light.

Clogged Catalytic Converter: If your catalytic convertor is clogged or starting to fail it can prevent the proper flow of air through the engine. This can lead to a loss of power. The vehicle will also run hotter than usual.

What to expect:

A top-­rated mobile mechanic will come to your home or office to determine the source and cause of the lack of power, ​and will then provide a detailed inspection report that includes the scope and cost of the necessary repairs.

How important is this service?

A vehicle that is not getting enough power should be inspected as soon as possible. It can be dangerous to drive, and fuel system problems that are not fixed can often lead to more expensive repairs as more components are affected.

Lexus GS350 V6-3.5L - Pre-purchase Car Inspection - Grand Prairie, Texas
Rusty was already at the location well ahead of the scheduled appointment time. He performed the inspection of the vehicle in a timely and systematic manner. He did explain that he did not have expertise to determine potential body issues (which was really my primary requirement) but he made an effort to look for those the best he could and identified questionable items (wax/paint issues). Overall, Rusty did a satisfactory job that helped with the decision to purchase the vehicle. Thank you!

Lexus GS350 V6-3.5L - Spark Plugs - Morgan Hill, California
It was my first time using Your Mechanics and it won’t be the last because of Jason’s excellent service. Jason called me before the visit to recommend using a different brand of spark plugs to save a decent chunk of money (ngk vs denco). During his visit, I was in and out of the garage but while, Jason clearly explained what he was doing. Definitely not for everyone but I rather enjoyed learning about my own car instead of being completely in the dark during regular garage visits. There was a quirk in how my car readjusts idle control after the spark plugs are changed. Jason stuck around for an extra hour until he figured it out (answer: disconnect battery for 10min). I felt comfortable through out the process. Highly recommend Jason.

Lexus GS350 V6-3.5L - Door Lock Actuator Replacement (Driver Side Front) - Riverview, Florida
John came to my house on time, was very polite, and installed a new door lock actuator on the drivers side front door of my Lexus GS350. He was very patient and meticulous with his work. I watched him do most of the work while talking with him. There were two wire connections and 5 electrical connections inside the door, and another hidden cable-ball joint for the outside door handle that he had to discover. He took his time and did an excellent job. I will ask for him every time I need service again on either of my cars.
