Hey there,

Are there any additive products that actually help clean your injectors??

Just wondering! :)

High quality, high octane gas is the best way to ensure that your fuel system stays in good shape. It never hurts to run some seafoam through the gas once in a while though.

That's the only way to clean them without removing them, anyhow. I cleaned mine by soaking the tips in brake cleaner when I had them out.

WRONG, Kyle. :D

Systems similar to this are available at Napa. THESE work.

They pump cleaner through the Schrader valve on the fuel rail.

Wow..that was quick!

I try to use 93 octane as much as I can, but have the occasional slip up to 89 or 90! :)

Seafoam in the gas tank?

Seafoam is da bomb!!!!!!! And yeah 93-92 all the time is preferred. Use it every couple months in my car and the GF's car (so yeah roughly every oil change fun a can through).

No to throw a zinger!

Lucas and seafoam dont clean your fuel injectors, they clean the carbon off the top of your pistons. Which is why it might seem as if your engine is running better.
