I recently had my car hooked up to a diagnostics test and I threw a code saying my injectors where starting to become clogged.(At Autozone they do it for free and I had an SES light come on so I took it there before taking it to GM. and this is what they said...any opinions?) I've tried the fuel inj. cleaners but after reseting the SES light it stays off for awhile, but after a few starts of the engine the light comes on again. Where can I find the correct way to manually take out the injectors and throughly clean them myself or do any of you know how? Is this a job I can do correctly or is it too sensitive?
Thanks, Jason.

There is some stuff you can hook up to a line of some kind that comes in a can...start the car and it stucks the stuff out of the can and cleans the injectors and TONS TONS of white smoke poors out. don't know the name of it though.

I think it's called sea-foam and you have to change the plugs after you run the stuff through the car.Good luck.

I may be in error but I believe the codes are thrown for electrical reasons only, not for sensing dirty injectors. best to ask the dealer.

 

So where can I find out more about this SEA Foam? I'm going to change my plugs soon anyways.
Also, is there a way to remove the inj. and clean them by hand?

 

You can by seafoam at most auto parts places. Disconnect the vacuum hose to the master cylinder put the hose up to the can and let it loose( turning the can upside down will help get all the cleaner out). put the vac hose back on and let it run for about ten minutes. turn off car. then change plugs. Smokes like sh#@ but it cleans very well.
