hey guys. i was roaming autozone the other day. i ran across things such as fuel injection cleaner, octane boosters, and stuff that supposed to clean your intake and carb and stuff like that. all of them would be dispensed through the gas hole.
im just wondering if these things really work? they are labeled as lasting for 3,000 miles which would mean i would only use 2 bottles a year. thats like 10 dollars a year which isnt bad if these things actually do something. anyone have experiance with them? |

Personally, I would prefer seafoam your engine, it'll do all that stuff for you and tell you where you have a bad gasket, or you could go to Mr. Lube and ask for a stage 4 fuel man. job, they clean out your fuel injectors, fuel rail, fuel lines, throttle body, ur entire intake system and everything. It's well worth it.
