5 SIGNS YOUR ENGINE IS LOOSING POWER.

does it feel like the horses under your hood have slowly turned into ponies? If so you might have a power problem. Back when good ol' carburetors ruled and fuel pumps were all mechanical, power loss was easier to fix, i.e. a vapor lock or a clogged fuel filter. This century fuel systems have drastically took over, and as your own body, every car needs fuel to burn and air to breathe. No vehicle likes to be running in high altitudes with a bannana crammed up the tail pipe. 

here are a few signs that you might need a new power motor

   1) If your foot is pedal to the medal and you keep getting dusted it might be a sign that your fuel system isnt sending enough juice to your engine to make it accelerate.it could be you have a leaking fuel line, clogged injector or gummed-up filter. Make sure if this is something you think it might be, think about taking it to a professional to diagnosis  before diving in. 

  2) If you step on the pedal to accelerate and all you get is a HUGE backfire, or a smoking exhaust it might indicate either too much fuel or theres minimal spark, and both can bring a power loss. If you pop the hood and you smell a reaking of gas, DO NOT TRY TO START IT! It's time to get a FREE TOW WITH REPAIRS! 

  3) If your driving and the steering wheel is completly out of control, even if you are a body builder you wont be able to control that steering wheel. ITS TIME TO GET YOUR VEHICLE DIAGNOSED FOR FREE!

  4) If it struggles to accelarate at an incline or completely shuts off, that  might signify a clogged fuel filter. your fuel filter is the antibiotic to your vehicle. It's job is to filter off the gunk that goes through the vehicle. and if it is not doing its job that could result in a loss of power. DONT JUST REPLACE THE FILTER, check to see what made the filter clogged it could be a contaminant or a result of a different issue.

  5)THAT SCARY FLASHING LIGHT ON YOUR DASH, could be the result of your own vehicle letting you know that there is a power loss to the engine. All the above signs will pull this light so when you see this light heed its warning it is telling you that something is just quite not right.

WHY ITS IMPORTANT TO GET YOUR VEHICLE'S ELECTRIC SYSTEM SERVICED.

There are dozens of electrical veins running power to your vehicles elctrical system and each varys by vehicle year make and model. This includes your vehicles battery, alternator and starter.In century vehicles there might even be sensors and functions for things such as brakes,steering and more. That being said the diangnosis on an electrical issue is made that much more difficult due to the simple fact that there could be many things pointing to that one electrical issue. 

HOW DO I KNOW WHEN ITS TIME TO HAVE AN ELECTRICAL SERVICE DONE ON MY VEHICLE?

Although batteries may last between 4-7 years, its smart ti replace your every four years just to be safe. Have a vehicle electrical service if:

     1) Your vehicle won't start- if when you turn your key and hear grinding,clicking or nothing at all 

     2) Dash lights are dimmer than usual 

     3) your vehicle is running great but your head lights dim at a idle  or  at a stop.
