Always wondered in the 17 years of driving if these petrol additives like injetor cleaners really work.....if they do is there a particular one which is better than the rest?

 

we use a treatment called forte at work,it is very very good stuff will get a car through emission alot of the time plus can sort out some running issues

 

Never heard of that one mate, where do you get it from? Ive heard of STP injector cleaner, Nitrox hot stuff, Redex petrol cleaner.

Could some of these help with running probs or clean the injectors?

 

We use fortron where we work, and it helps sometimes if a car has failed on emmisions, manages to get through after one of these and a little thrashing We do use engine flush and other additives too though.

 

yer it can help and will help the injectors we get it direct from forte if u aint far from me i have got some u can have(petrol car i take it?)

 

Some are better than others, FORTE is good as is MILLERS.
A lot depends on why the injectors are sluggish, these additives will NOT get rid of varnish and gum deposits from where a car may not have been used for months on end.
None of the additives even come close to ULTRASONIC cleaning though, but aren't ultrasonic money either, which is normally around £50/60 a set to clean, but you will know the CC/min rate of each one after as well.
