I have not had any injector problems either in the past three years.I use quality fuels only.I cannot see how twelve ounces of cleaner added to twenty GALLONS of gas could possibly do anything.Just not strong enough.Save your money and buy good gas w/o alcohol added.The only way to clean injectors is when the chemical is added directly to the ...

15,000 mile fuel injector cleaner that some quick lube places hook up to your car and run through the system with some sort of hose? More low cost/high profit/little benefit "maintenence" voodoo? or truly beneficial. Even my Chevy dealer did this---At the 10,ooo mile service [for 59.95]!!!

A good way to check out the pump, pickup filter and inline filter is to measure fuel delivery volume. Relieve system pressure, then disconnect the fuel supply line at the fuel filter or fuel rail, or disconnect the return hose from the rail. Place the open end of the fuel hose in a measuring cup or graduated cylinder.

A mobile mechanic suggested a potential issue with the third fuel injector or its wiring and recommended replacing all four injectors. Additionally, I noticed a change in idling when checking the oil, which was a quart low. I added fuel injector cleaner, high-octane gas, and a quart of oil. The car has been running smoothly since. Current Concerns:

The fuel injector cleaner I am thinking about using is STP Super Concentrated Fuel Injector Cleaner. Normally it is about $5.00 a bottle. The Wholesale Club sells it in a four pack for less than $8.00.

A.Fisch, the Avalon has a "pressurized" fuel system. Opening the gas cap will NOT relieve the pressure. Disconnecting the fuel line will dump a lot of fuel, much like opening the nozzle on a hose that has already been shut off, there is fuel under pressure in the lines. Disconnecting the PUMP does not relieve the pressure.

If all ignition checks good, It's like;y the spider injector assembly inside the intake at fault, while cleaners do clean metal injectors well in most cases, most have a hard time softening 200k mile fuel lined brittle plastic.

2001年7月1日 · There are real ways to get better fuel mileage, but they all work in very small increments (synthetic oil, tire inflation, alignment, wind-cheating devices, perfect engine tuning, new air filter, driving very precisely, etc.).

The problems are worse on hot days, esp. when the car has been sitting in the sun. I don't really notice any symptoms when the engine is cold. I thought that using fuel injector cleaner lessened the problem, but I could be over-optimistic. The check engine light seems more apt to come on when I use the A/C.
