Victor Yes your article and recommendations are well taken. 11/25/2010
ot 25 master me Bull only need to service the injectors manually if need. Just run good gas and there will be no problems. People will do there best to get you to buy products you do not need so beware of this. 10/26/2010
Techniker This is the most comical article I have read. Who in the world pulls (and replaces) fuel injectors every year? After 5 years of doing this, it would be the cost of an engine rebuild. Get real. I assume you are in the FI cleaning business. I don't know of any reputable mechanic that suggests anything near this level of service.

shawnwiz can i remove my injectors and soak them to clean them? 7/13/2010
Jay Your entire article shows your intense ignorance. The idea of replacing good injectors because they are a year old is foolishness. Clean them with an in the tank cleaner once per year and they will reward you with a lifetime of great operation. I am a professional engineer and have worked with engines for nearly 40 years. You are missleading your readers. The best (and funniest) part of all, is the picture you have on your article. It is a picture of an engine with a carburator. (duh, no fuel injectors in a carburated engine ! ) 5/7/2010
lovely laila Hahahaha my car is an 86 camaro and the injectors have never been replaced or professionally cleaned. NEVER! And they don't need to be. My engine gets fuel and makes over 25 mpg. I've only used an injector cleaner (the bottle you pour in the tank with the gas) once - when I first bought it 6 yrs ago. Only reason I did it was because the original owner said that it'd never been done. Someone needs to do some fact checking before they post worthless dribble. Hint hint! 9/22/2009
chuck the site was very easy to use and it gave me all the imformation that i need thank you 9/1/2009

Machw0 You want people to replace their fuel injectors annually plus get them cleaned annually as well? Sounds like somebody owns an auto parts store. 8/1/2009

Robert Johnson Jayashree Pakhare. What kind of idiot are you? Nobody recommends replacing fuel injectors once a year. Please find a subject you know something about before shooting off your mouth and getting a pay check for it.
Too many degrees and no knowlege just BS.		 4/11/2009
Hank Replacing injectors yearly is foolish and not necessary. Used good quality gas and add some Techron additive once a quarter or so should be all that is needed. If they get so bad the engine is missing, it may be time for cleaning them or replacing them. 4/10/2009
Andy Replace injectors once a year? That's absurd! 2/4/2009
rashak tony Today while I was browsing on the Internet I came across this site Power Enhancer which deals with various lubricants of BG, Millers, Johnson’s, etc that can be used for your automobile. These helps in increasing the performance of your automobile and also improves the mileage. Some of the products – lubricants are used to clean the fuel injectors of diesel and petrol engines. 1/16/2009

Jerelle Somebody has to be nutty, stating that the fuel injectors should be changed yearly. I have a 2001 GMC Jimmy and have had three mechanics say that I have a small leak in one of my injectors and gave repair quotes in the range of $1500 to $950 for replacement. Each want to do replacement but one did say I could replace now or continue to drive just that my vehicle would use a little more gas and run rough until my speed get above 35-40 miles per hour. This is exactly what is happening. My vehicle has a little over 45,000 miles on it and is in good condition except for this problem. I am still shopping for a better price, but there is no way these can be replaced yearly. 1/8/2009
Bob Dole This article give some good "GENERAL" information and leaves may things too vague to understand. Why don't you add some examples of products a person can purchase to do the "IN TANK" method 11/8/2008
Bob Having your fuel injectors replaced or even removed and cleaned once per year is way too expensive unless the engine is not running properly. You would never make up the difference in fuel mileage.
You almost got the cleaning procedures right,, not quite.		 9/19/2008
Chris Is this woman for real? Is this a joke? I shared this "article" around the office and has been a real hit.
"the fuel injector both filters out debris that is not good for the engine; it then allows the filtered fuel to be used by the engine correctly." HAHA. WHo's this lady's bos? He/She should be fired !		 8/5/2008
decki replacing fuel injectors yearly?
are you insane? injectors last years. cleaning them regularly is a good idea, but replacing them is very expensive and useless unless they are bad.		 7/6/2008
Jim You have some mis-information here! Injectors should be cleaned when needed, not yearly. If a car is driven alot, cleaning MAYonly be needed in many years ,if EVER Further in the article you recommend replacement every year. That is total NONSENSE No car maker makes such a silly suggestion! 6/29/2008
internet refuge Since when do fuel injectors have oxygen senors in them? Where is Jayashree's article on how to change my blinker fluid? 5/23/2008
