My friend told me this, he'* not a real gearhead by anymeans. But the statement in one school of thought could make sense. He had a Jeep, and he used the fuel injector cleaner once. It brought back some power to the Jeep. But then after a while he noticed that the power really dropped off, worse then before. So he used the cleaner again.... power restored. But after a while the power drop would occur again, slowly, but it was worse then before he had ever used the injector cleaner.
Anyways.... that was his story....
I just leave the fuel injector stuff and all that to my mechanic. If he recommends it, I do it.
Mine does, so I do. It'* under $3 so i figure what the hey, it makes me feel good if anything. My fuel injectors are perfect, and the entire fuel system is perfect (tested for free btw).
I don't see how they would cause it to get dirtier then they would normally...
