I'd have to say that its a waste of money. But I've heard mixed stories. I used it in my old bird, didn't do any damage, but also didn't do any good.

Ham,

You're already in Michigan. Cruizin' Performance is just a short trip away from you, and if you have problem injectors, you'll never regret the trip - unless you run over a few more animals.

The only fuel system cleaner that ever worked for me was this stuff made by Berryman. It was called chemtool or something like that. I used it in my old '87 Formula that had an LG4 and it actually helped out quite a bit after two tanks. Too bad the Kragens around here don't carry it anymore. Most of that stuff however is a joke. If anything, most of that stuff is just good preventative maintenance.
