    Dear All Sifus and taikos,I just wanna ask whether anyone of you have tried this Fuel Injector Cleaner? I just came across this product by chance, and it seems rather impressive This is how it works:Add to Gas Every Oil ChangeContains concentrated detergents that help dissolve and remove harmful carbon, gum and varnish deposits on fuel injectors. Without cleaning, deposits can lead to hard starts, lost acceleration and rough idling. This product is made with Jet fuel, a high-quality carrier of active ingredients. This product is safe for all gasoline engines., it claims to be able to :•Restore lost power and acceleration•Smooth rough idle and eliminate tough starts•Save gas by cleaning fuel injectorsSo, would like to know whther anyone here have tried this product and does it reall work? Any negative or positive implications after use?If, so, which brand is the best? This product is from the brand "STP".Thanks alot in advance for all your kind advicves:burnout:

    I think it's better if you just fill up your car with a couple of tankful of Shell V-Power or Caltex with techron ... They have the additives in the fuel albeit in a very diluted form :)

    Also Jet Fuel is actually a high grade kerosene ... Is it really safe for our cars???

    If you really want to clean the injectors do use a BMW approved fuel injection cleaner and make sure it has the BMW Part number 88 88 6 900 307 on it's label or on the website :D

    http://www.alamomotorsports.com/Redline/redadditives.htm :-
    SI-2 -- contains the same powerful high-temperature detergents and synthetic upper cylinder lubricants as in Red Line SI-1, but is packaged in a convenient 6oz container designed to treat one tank of fuel. Red Line SI-2 is recognized by BMW as providing intake system cleanliness for unlimited mileage and equivalent to BMW Part number 88 88 6 900 307.


    The other route (tho expensive) using a ultrasound (ultrasonic?) fuel injector cleaning machine .... Cost is around RM50 per injector but it's the most effective and proven method.

    Bro B33mEr,

    Thank alot for your advice, have you tried SI-2 before? Is the result noticeable?
    I am driving an E36, 328 1998 model,it should be ok for my car to go through the injector cleansing?

    Really appreciate it.

    I havent tried SI-2 or any of the additives ... I don't see the need to in my case but maybe i will when i clock another 10k miles or so ...


    There's one in SS19 Subang Jaya (it's the row behind shell) ... Another one is auto child and there's one in Sunway.
    Mind you i have never tried any of their service before ... So do get more info before committing.

    If you still want to continue trying to push your product in this forum, I won't be surprise that you will be ban by the Committee member.
