RAS Auto Facts - Air Conditioning

As refrigerant levels decrease from evaporation or leaks your air con system will begin to deteriorate and will have to work harder, increasing the amount of fuel you burn.

Therefore it is important to study the condition of the rubber seals at regular intervals for any signs of leaks or damage which may indicate a loss of refrigerant.

Having your car's air conditioning serviced every twelve months means you help prevent costly breakdowns now and in the future, keep passengers safe by helping to prevent the build-up of potentially harmful substances and a well serviced car air conditioner actually saves you money because it reduces fuel expenditure.

Griffo's Automotive care about the environment and have Arctick Authorisation (AU55434) to reliably and responsibly conduct car air conditioner regas, repairs, inspection and servicing.

Car Air Conditioning Service in Taree

Did you know there is a cabin air filter in your car? Where is your cabin air filter? They are designed to remove a large amount of outside air pollutants and debris to keep you breathing easily when you drive.  And it is usually located in your glovebox. Talk to Griffo's Automotive in Taree today about your cabin air filter !

Just like your air-conditioning at home, the filters need to be checked at regular intervals and changed when it has done it's job. Replacing your cabin air filter is important to your health and your cars health too!

The air outside your car can be polluted enough with smoggy city traffic or even dusty country roads, but research published in the Environmental Health Perspectives Journal shows that without an effective cabin air filter installed, the air inside your car can contain over 10 times more pollutants than the air outside.
This poor quality air can cause:

"Cabin air filters are designed to filter out contaminants while  absorbing noxious odours and harmful gases like exhaust and ozone,"  explained Ryco Filters General Manager of Sales & Marketing, Ross Lamb. Cabin air filters become clogged over time and their effectiveness at protecting your health declines. 

If you drive ‘Mum's Taxi', you might feel like you are always on the move - and a recent study into driving habits confirmed that parents with children aged 6-15 drive approximately 10% more than drivers without kids. And, the longer you spend in a vehicle with a Cabin Air Filter that needs replacing, the more you are at risk of health complications. 

As well as healthier air - an effective cabin air filter means you get better fuel performance from your vehicle. A clogged cabin air filter will cause your air conditioner to work harder than it needs to and this means it uses more fuel and your air conditioning system is more likely to have a costly breakdown.

At Griffo's Automotive in Taree we check your cabin air filter as part of our free 65 Point Vehicle Inspection report which you can request with every full car service.
For a more comprehensive check of your air condition system we recommend an air conditioning service.

Cabin air filter replacement is not only important to your car's health - it affects yours too.

What is an electronic fuel injection system?

In an internal combustion engine, an EFI is the system for mixing fuel and air. For the last few decades, EFI has gradually replaced carburettors to become the most typical system used for fuel delivery in fuel based engines.

In an EFI, a fuel pump pushes the fuel coming from a tank into different injectors creating sufficient pressure for the injectors to deliver accurate amount of fuel. Pump pressure and fuel volume flowing through must meet vehicle manufacturer standards. Failing to meet requirements, the engine performance and economy could be reduced, at the same increasing fuel consumption and emissions.

When inspecting and servicing EFI systems, electric fuel pumps are the primary concern area. Regular wear and tear under normal operating conditions will cause fuel pumps to fail over time. If rust or other type of dirt settle on inlets past filters or contaminate the pump, the repairs will be needed much sooner. This is why it is crucial to inspect your car at scheduled intervals and keep up with servicing your vehicle.

Throttle Body Injection and Port Injection are the two major types of fuel injection are used in modern gasoline engines. Both operate by the same principles, yet look very different. 

Port Injection System sends fuel directly into individual cylinders. Various sensors are located throughout the engine compartment to detect airflow, vacuum, temperature and exhaust. 

Throttle Body Systems have two injectors inside an aluminium housing, mounted to the intake manifold. Nearly all required sensors are located in the same aluminum housing.

The major difference between both systems is price and performance. The far superior port injection systems are also considerably more expensive as the individual sensors must be manufactured separately so that each component can be mounted independently. With each cylinder receiving fuel individually, the computer can control fuel consumption and power much more efficiently. Throttle body systems are cheaper to manufacture, however offer lower performance.

Electronic fuel injection system components

The key to an efficient electronic fuel injection system is the computer. All electronic fuel injection systems utilise a computer to receive information from sensors and, based on information received, send necessary voltage to fuel injectors. Various manufacturers have different names for the electronic fuel injection computer:

Brain Box (typically used in used parts industry)

To get your electronic fuel injection system checked by a professional, speak with the team at Griffo's Automotive or book online!
