Do a little more research first. But.....I have read, I have not yet tried......
a product called "BG44K Advanced Formula" fuel injector cleaner. This may be for a car with a serious fuel injection problem. There may be a better product just to maintain a clean fuel injection system. I'm sure other forum members will have some input. You never stop learning on this web site.

Bamagolfer, I just got off the phone with a friend of mine. I brought up the fuel injection question. His answer is "Chevron Techron" He uses it about every 6,000 miles.

I have been using BG 44K in all of my cars for several years. It's good stuff, and while i can't claim that its going to give you any kind of horsepower boost. In the 10 years or so that I have been using it, I have never had any fuel problems in any of my cars. Mechanics around here swear by the stuff.

One can every 6 months usually does it.

Let me know if you can't find any locally, I have a guy out here that sells it.

I have always used Berryman's B-12 in all of my cars. I have always herd that it was an excellent product for keeping moisture out of the tank as well as cleaning the injectors. Any input on that product?
