The guys down at the local lube shop are always pushing a fuel injection cleaning service for $60. They explain that they run a can of this injector cleaing fluid direct into the rails and it does a good job of cleaning out the injectors.

Has anyone done this to their car and noticed any difference?

I am considering it because my car has a slight idle surge where in fluctuates 100 rpm at idle up and down. I pulled the plugs yesterday and the previous owner had a shop put in crap champion plugs that were shot to hell. I am putting in a quality set of plugs in hopes that will solve the problem.

Also I put on a new fuel filter, and the old one was heavy and noisy with setiment, so all of this maintaince may solve the slight problem. I just thought the fuel injection service as a last resort. I do run fuel injection additive once in awhile (the good stuff).

Thanks.

 

Jesus Christ, no.

 

You can buy some GM top end cleaner or Seafoam. Both work well and don't cost anywhere near $60. I use Seafoam since it is easier for me to get and it is part of my normal maintenance routine.

 

Thats correct, I say no to jesus christ, but what does that have to do with the question ?
