A dirty fuel system affects combustion by restricting fuel flow:

Clogged fuel filter: Reduces fuel supply to the engine.

Dirty fuel injectors: Spray patterns are affected, causing uneven fuel distribution.

Fuel pump issues: Dirt and debris can cause pump malfunction.

This leads to sputtering, hesitation, and poor acceleration.

Fix: Replace the fuel filter regularly, clean fuel injectors using fuel additives o r professional cleaning, and inspect the fuel pump for proper function.
