I got a 3 step fuel injection service yesterday and when they put the fluid through to clean the intake (injectors?) it cleared out alot of deposits as the exhaust threw out black smoke/exhaust. When they finished with the bottle, there was still black smoke coming from the exhaust, just not as thick/dense. Would it be OK to get that part of the service done again as my engine is idling a bit smoother (though still a bit rough) and I just wanted to know if doing it again would damage anything since it's obviously still dirty.
Thanks for your time and info

No, cleaning again will not hurt the engine. You probably have a lot of carbon build up in the cylinders so it might take some time after the cleaning to clear it up.

i own a repair shop,and you actually need to drive it for a while to let it clear up ,and then see if it needs it again,you should change the plugs in it after you clean one out though because it makes them run hotter for a while,and sometimes it will damage them if there kind of old,,but id drive it a few days and see if it clears up before i did it again,,good luck with it,i hope this help,s.
