Hi Roy :)

Yes additives can be used...the best I know is called FORTE SPECIALIST INJECTION CLEANER (just add a can or two to tank full of fuel)

Very good stuff.....

OFF car cleaning can be done but its expensive.....what makes you think they need cleaning as modern fuels like V-Power have additives that prevent injectors clogging.... ??

All the best Brett :)

Ive just used Forte injector cleaner in my Volvo Turbo.It was running rough on start up in the morning but was ok after a few minutes .A couple of weeks with Forte in the tank and the problem has gone! :D Also good stuff for getting cars through MOTs. :wink:
