real quick injector cleaner question

usmcsawgunner · June 16th, 2007, 12:23 AM

will putting injector cleaner in your fuel hurt the performance till all of that is out?

JBIGBOOTSY · June 16th, 2007, 12:30 AM

no, not at all.

usmcsawgunner · June 16th, 2007, 12:32 AM

hmm...well all of the sudden my car does a little studder thing when i floor it and its never done that before..its gettin real humid here maybe thats why.....and suggestions?

JBIGBOOTSY · June 16th, 2007, 12:41 AM

could be, Ive tried a few and they dident do anything, try cleaning your maf, and intake air temp sensor, I clean those every 2K or so and am allways pleased with the results.

usmcsawgunner · June 16th, 2007, 12:45 AM

cool..will do can i just use carb cleaner or what?

JBIGBOOTSY · June 16th, 2007, 12:51 AM

yup, let us know if the shudder goes away after the tank with the cleaner is done. Im curious, It shoulden't make performance go down, but I have been wrong before.

i got some octant booster im gonna put in after this tank is gone (couple hrs) haha anyway yea im gonna take my car to get dynoed real soon...how much is a good tune and dyno?

there is only 1 place in my town, 3 pulls $100, or 300 for 4 hours. If you have an aftermarket engin mgt. youll need a few runs, just the a9l, its just timing and fuel pressure. and you can do that with much less time.

Last guy posted 150 for the first three pulls to set a base A/F and 100 an hour after that. I think someone posted 55 an hour, but I think that would be real hard to find. No telling what it'll cost out there.

your kinda wasting your $$$ on those cleaners...to a point..yes it will dissolve some tarnish but do nothing to small hard pieces that are on the screen/pinnacle. when I get issues with mine I send them off to be redone and be flow matched, costs about 15.00 per injector. even new injectors don't all flow the same. when I do s/c or nitrous engine I have even new injectors done for my customers :award
