[Shop-talk] Fuel Injector Cleaners

[John T. Blair]

Thanks to all those that answered.

Michael asked, "did you ask them what in the readings suggested the need?"

No I didn't ask.  Didn't think of it.

And no, I haven't noticed any missing, no check engine light, and no 
error codes
come up on my reader.

I think they were just looking at either the roughly 60K miles of the 
10 yrs of age.

This isn't the first time I've had a shop suggest having the 
injectors cleaned, but
no one as actually given me an error code, or a real reason, other 
than "it should
be done."

Last time someone said that to me I put a can of Sea Foam in like John
suggested.  I've used that and couple of other products and never had 
a problem.
But I don't use any product regularly.  I guess I probably should as 
a $5-$10 can
of something 1 or 2 times a year is cheap insurance and definately cheaper than
$150!

PJ said, "but I have sent off sets to Marren Injection to have them 
done,".  I've
heard of that before, but that is a lot more than $150.  Don't know 
if we still do
but there was a place in town that did the off vechile cleaning for 
the deisel trucks.

Thanks again for all the info.

John
