Yes, faulty fuel injectors can cause a car not to start. Fuel injectors are responsible for delivering the right amount of fuel into the engine for combustion. If one or more injectors are clogged, leaking, or malfunctioning, it can disrupt the fuel supply, leading to engine misfires, poor performance, or a complete failure to start.
Possible symptoms of fuel injector issues include:
- The engine cranks but doesn’t start.
- Rough idling or stalling.
- Poor acceleration or loss of power.
- Increased fuel consumption.
If you suspect the fuel injectors might be the cause, it’s a good idea to have them checked or cleaned by a mechanic to prevent further damage.
