Engine misfire on idle and at low speeds. New spark plugs
and coil packs fitted, fault not cured.
The fault was cured by adding 2 x Forté Petrol Specialist Injector Cleaner and Forté Advanced Formula GasTreatment into the fuel tank and carrying out an extended road test.
Forté's Technical Helpline receives over 300 calls per month. This blog shares solutions for garage workshops on common driveability concerns that can be quickly and effectively treated. The vast majority of those identified are caused by fuel and oil borne contamination formed by natural degradation or via the combustion process. This is a fact of life for internal combustion engines where fossil fuels and oils are used.
