Fuel injectors suffer most often due to low-quality gasoline — impurities and resins form deposits, disrupt spraying and can completely clog parts, which is manifested in unstable engine operation. This was announced by ROSSKO technical specialist Konstantin Ershov on Wednesday, July 15.

"This usually manifests itself as follows: the engine runs unevenly and "triples", the start worsens, thrust decreases, fuel consumption increases, and acceleration jerks appear," he said in an interview with Lenta.Ru .

According to the expert, bad gasoline quickly pollutes spark plugs, and with prolonged use it can disable the fuel pump and catalyst. Life.Ru .

In the most advanced cases, in his opinion, detonation occurs, which leads to accelerated wear of parts of the cylinder-piston group, according to the website. kp.ru .

Russians' spending on fuel increased by 18.5% year-on-year in June and entered the top 3 spending categories along with marketplaces (29.4%) and digital goods (online subscriptions, training courses, etc., 40.7%), Izvestia found.
