they make fuel injector cleaner that you put in when you fill up with fuel............get either STP or Lucas.....if not.....you can always take it to a dealership and have them perform a fuel system service which cleans pretty much EVERYTHING...........so......

honestly, ive never used one. if i were though, id probably pick up a bottle of STP fuel injector cleaner. and ive never heard of the other 2, but, doesnt mean theyre not good products. go to a local parts store and ask them for their opinion or something......

Its SEAFOAM and its great! And its very entertaining also. It can clean anything you want it to. I used it on my Intrepid and I put half in my oil and half in my tank. Do a search on it; its a great product and its cheap too.

You can get Seafoam at Advanced Auto, Car Quest, and probably most other parts stores. If you want to clean your upper you can either suck it up through the brake booster line or find a way to pour it into the intake. It will smoke like a freight train for a while, so be outside. The rest of the can you can put into the gas tank.
