How do you reduce engine emissions?
Changing the air filter too will also help reduce emissions. A new air filter will be more effective at keeping dirt out of the car engine, making the car run more efficiently and producing a much cleaner exhaust. You can buy fuel additives that are supposed to burn fuel more effectively.

Why is the fuel injector on my Mini not working?
The fuel injectors are responsible for dispersing the fuel evenly in the combustion chamber, which requires multiple other components in the fuel system, such as sensors and fuel lines, to be working properly as well. It is common for the fuel injectors to become clogged over time, especially if your MINI isn’t receiving the proper type of fuel.

What happens when a mini one Mot fails?
This means rather than producing a fine high pressure spray which vapourises in the air they inject fuel in the form of a jet which doesn’t mix so well. The result is poor combustion leading to reduced performance, increased fuel consumption and poor emmisions.
