fuel injector cleaner

Lets hear everyones opinions on different fuel injector cleaners. Ive heard good things about the Chevron Techron F.I. cleaner, but have not used it personally(yet).

I know the best thing to do would be send them off to RC engineering to have them cleaned, but I cannot have my car down for 2 days right now.

I've also heard the Chevron stuff is the best. I tried Castrol GTX fuel system cleaner once and was pleased with the results.

I just put some Valvoline Synthtec stuff in, as it's too damn cold to go and do my plugs and wires (which I believe are the cause of my occasional rough start). I wanted to clean my injectors as a few weeks ago I dumped a bunch of 2-cycle in the gas as I got an OMP code which turned out to be false and before that my car ran like a champ.

We'll see what happens, but I noticed my car to be running a bit smoother.

VMB, go check this thread And yes, I will be making them. I should be getting one in the mail very soon so I can start.

I put in a bottle of Chevron Techron F.I. cleaner in my car today, and even after 50 miles, my car is noticably smoother, and my top end hesitation is almost gone. Ill post more details when I go through this tank of gas.
