Just got home from work and just checked the forum.
I already filled up with premium. Maybe tonight I'll take a drive on the freeway, hopefully it wont have a negative effect, but a positive one. If anything i'll run down the tank and refill with regular and add injector cleaner. |

As for injector cleaner? another needless additive as its already formulated into the gas you buy,i've ran my last 4 fuel injected vehicles well over 200k and never used injector cleaner and never had problems with an injector, Your slight hesitation could be a misgapped plug or a plug wire not working properly or just a bad tank of gas.

I've seen lots of bad injectors over the years. Cylinder misfire counters and injector fault confirmations in the datastream of my scantool make it easy for me to see them. Lucas injector cleaner fixed two out of the three clogged injectors on the last Blazer I worked on. Took care of the misfire counts on all the cylinders except one...had to drag out the MotorVac machine to clean that last stubborn one. |
