In Colorado, all the refineries end up with some sulfer in the gas, and cars with very small injectors (like the 944 I had...geez...18 yrs ago) require periodic use of Techron, the only product that would get them to run clean and pass emissions (strict in Colo). They use it at Chevron stations, and sell it in concentrated form at auto parts stores. I use it on every vehicle I own and have never had a fuel system problem or injector problem. |

Guys,
Is it a good idea to use a injector or fuel cleaner when filling up at the gas station so to clean the fuel and injector system on the car ???
