Is there a difference between the fuel injection cleaner I can buy at the store vs. what my auto shop uses?

Answer 1

No. But if you want to get the best get Lucas Fuel Treatment. You can get it at your local auto store. It's good stuff.

Answer 2

Don't bother with professionally cleaning them. If you know enough about cars to diagnose a sticking/clogged fuel injector, then you should know how to remove and clean them yourself, as well. Otherwise, dump some fuel injector/carb cleaner if you really want to. I doubt it's the fuel injectors, that's rarely the problem. Don't take shots in the dark. If you can't figure it out, take it to a mechanic. Don't just throw money at it. You might as well grab a wad of 20$'s and light them on fire. Mark, I have to give your shop props if it goes through all of that, but most of the ones around where I live only pull the fuel injectors and clean the fuel injectors. They don't clean the intake, throttle body, EGR or vacuum lines. That's an extra service.

Answer 3

well depends. If you were to go and get a fuel injection cleaning from a shop it is a three stage process. First, they clean your throttle body w/ throttle plate cleaner. Then they tap your fuel line and run a pressurized fuel cleaner through your fuel rail and into your injectors. (your car will actually be running off this and not gas until the process's is done) and then they put an additive in your gas tank. I strongly recommend this for vehicle that run rough because it does work wonders and you will get better gas mileage. hope this helps frank

Answer 4

B&d Fuel Injection

Answer 5

if you are referring to the type of cleaner the repair shop injects into you engines fuel injection system (not just dump in the tank)
it is a lot more powerful detergent that due to many state's regulations make it off limits for you to purchase as a consumer,
plus you would need the equipment to connect it to and inject it into your engines fuel system, and yes it does cost more
