Injector cleaner experiences?

Post by arnaud »

Hi everyone,
My engine runs lately under load very little irregular; You cannot hear difference in RPM but when riding you feel a little 'swaying' back and forth in power.
Fuel filter is new.
No air in fuel line.
Further info; winsun 188, ca. 40.000km's.

Question of today; what about 'repair in a bottle' injector cleaners?
Does anyone have -a noticable- experience with such a product?

Forte used to do a good cleaner but due to the resulting smoke, I think the formulas have been changed to clean injectors over a longer period.
I once poured a bottle of the old stuff in my car & after a short run, went for the vehicles MoT test. Waiting in the que with the engine ticking over, my car was slowly envoloped in a cloud of smoke which had the mechanic’s thereabouts flapping their hands about :lol:
