Default fuel injector cleaners

I heard not to use them cause they are not "good" for the engine.... Is this true?

Sea Foam is the best stuff ever. REad the side of the can and you will see that you can use it in your oil before a change and also can run it through your pcv valve line........that will instantly clean your engine out. White smoke will come out of you exhaust from the cleaning.

i got a can of it in the 'garage' waiting to go in. i figure after i replace the valve seals I'll do a full cleaning and then also replace the spark plugs while i'm at it.


a brand of fuel cleaner I have had good luck with is the lucas brand. I don't like their oil addtives (Or anyone's for that matter) but they have a great fuel cleaner that has given me good results
