Guest chiefvinso Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 I've used slick 50 injector cleaner, dont really know how you can test unless injectors are really dirty. I used silkolene fuel treatment in my GT4 and I noticed a difference but you have to order that stuff I would have thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richie-R Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 According to wikipedia quote -Toluene also poses similar problems as alcohol fuels, as it eats through standard rubber fuel lines and has no lubricating properties as standard gasoline does, which can break down fuel pumps and cause upper cylinder bore wear. Err no thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kranz Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 Having worked in the fuels/lubes business I've seen evidence that Techron and Slick 50 complete system cleaner work well. There's an SAE paper published on the cleaning effects of Slick 50's top range product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
