Yeobh 4th Gear February 13, 2006 Share February 13, 2006 (edited) The cleaning liquid is strong enough to remove the rust and deposits in the tank and allows them to be moved toward the injectors. If the in-line filter is of OEM quality, chances it will trap most of the dirts and particles and overtime will cause high pressure and very low volume flow of fuel. On the hand if the dirts are not stop at the filter and allow to land in the injectors - the ultimate is a big hole in the pocket. PS attached photo of a injector cleaning canister powered by compressed air. This device is connected directly to the injector common rail. The other end of the fuel return line is connected and block to prevent contaminated fuel from returning to the tank.

Upguy Neutral Newbie February 13, 2006 Share February 13, 2006 any comments on the STP fuel injection cleaner in silver bottle.. ?? I think cost is about 25 bucks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stary Turbocharged February 13, 2006 Share February 13, 2006 haha....i am using that now. First time after 45000 km. I feel my acceleration is smoother. Now at 3/4 tank...meaning clean for 1/4 tank already. But I suggest you use this only when u about to change engine oil. This is a full cleaning system....it cleans the intake valves, cyclinder head and everything else. All the dirt is "thrown" into the combustion chamber and burnt together with the fuel.....so I am not sure if it will dirty the engine oil during the process.

Genie47 1st Gear February 13, 2006 Share February 13, 2006 Nice! The one I know very well is the 3M Fuel System Cleaning. Looks professional and expensive! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwoon 1st Gear February 13, 2006 Share February 13, 2006 That $27 STP full system treatment is good. Did feel some improvement after using it at around 30K km. But I remember once when using in my previous ride (Sunny), I was greedy and mixed in too high concentration. (used the whole bottle for half tank of fuel) Thought it would give better results....... ended up the ride was very lethargic till I mixed in more petrol to dilute the mix.

Law_ong Neutral Newbie February 13, 2006 Share February 13, 2006 Regular change of fuel filter helps? I just changed mine at 40K.. Looking at the filter.. I reckoned change at every 20K will not be overkill.. I changed mine at 40k too....but its so clean and expensive sia..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie47 1st Gear February 13, 2006 Share February 13, 2006 Point to note. GMDAT fuel filter, made in Korea with authentic GM holographic seal/sticker. $10 GME Opel fuel filter. Dimension for dimension the same as the above, made in England. $30 Since you drive a Ford, I suggest you check with the Mazda owners how much they pay for their stuff. Who knows! They are part for part, dimension for dimension the same as the Ford parts and cheaper! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
