I have had good luck with either BG 44K or Chevron W/ the Techron additive. At one time the only fuel system cleaner approved for use by Porsche was Techron...

seafoam.. although they tell you to only use chevron techron which works well also.. but if you have idle trouble you may want to take our yout idle air control and clean it. There could be build up on it.

:iagree:

Cruzin performance did a super job restoring my injectors to like-new condition.

I've read that the injectors in the LT-1 are cooled by flowing gasoline over the solenoid coil, and that certain solvents can harm it. Be careful with the cleaner you put into the gas.
