Ok.. iam going to do a good tune up of my engine, cuz it hasnt had 1 in a while... to clean the fuel injectors i can just use a bottle that you add to your tank.. BUT which one.. there is a million?? which is the best?? also for cleaning the throttle body what can i use?? there is some kind of aresol spray.. will it work?? also i was lookin around today and i saw octane boost like racing formula and stuff?? does that stuff really work. iam just curious... What else would u suggest i do for a good tune up??

The normal "Gumout" brand spray fuel sys cleaner is as good as most any. or whatever they have on the shelf. The Techron stuff is good for putting in the fuel tank. Amsoil also has both an additive (PI) and a good spray cleaner (PowerFoam), just did both to mine last week.
I'd stay away from the octane boosters unless you have done some mods to raise the compression or other stuff to cause you to need it. It really wont help a stock car, and can make it run worse. |
