MG Motor (08-) Fuel system clean

Does My MG Motor (08-) Need a Fuel System Clean?

MG Motor (08-)’s can get a build-up of dirt, grime and carbon deposits inside the fuel system. A fuel system clean is similar to a fuel injector clean except it’s a more powerful clean for the system. A fuel system clean can remove water and fuel deposits, clean and lubricate injectors, valves, rings, cylinder heads and combustion chambers on a MG Motor (08-). The MG Motor (08-)’s throttle body and throttle plate/butterfly valve will typically be cleaned of dirt and grime at the same time.

A professional mechanic may take 30 mins to 2 hours to carry out a fuel system clean. The time depends on how thorough the clean is and how long it takes to run the cleaner through the MG Motor (08-)’s system. 

If the fuel system clean is performed as a regular maintenance task then the cost won’t be too high, but if the vehicle has a history of performance issues, then more time may be needed to assess the MG Motor (08-)’s fuel system. The cost can range from 10’s of dollars and move up into the hundreds to clean the fuel system.

If a MG Motor (08-) has had the wrong fuel added to the fuel tank or someone vandalised the MG Motor (08-) by putting a foreign substance into the fuel tank and it was then driven, an entire fuel system clean will need to be carried out. The MG Motor (08-) would need to be towed to a workshop and a mechanic would need to assess the damage and quote the repair based on the work involved.
