That should be fine I'd think, I don't have anything special on mine either at this point, at least until after I ditch the stock tank all together. And I'm on a race fuel, you're still running pump fuel yes?

no ****, i wouldnt think they would go bad.
atleast its an easy fix.

i hurt a pistion in my 402 a few years back because an injector.
i went threw everything, everything looked perfect 7 out of 8 pistions where 100% perfect no issues the other one got hit.
i couldnt figure it out. it came to the injectors, i marked my #4 injector, they tested the 8 of them and my #4 was 31% lower then the lowest of the other 7.
so that explaind it.
now on a nitrous car i send my injectors out every year and have them cleaned, tested and reflowed. i did it to my new one i got last year, and i sent them out this past winter

I'm sending mine out when I pull the intake to make a couple changes, every plug right now even with the plate are looking damn near perfect, but I'm gonna have them tested while it's apart anyway.

yes, a screen
i change mine every season

ive been told by 2 different places fuel injector cleaner accually does work.
i run it in my race car every once and a while threw the season, i also run it in every one of the cars in my fleet about every 2-3 tanks full.
they told me not as a sales pitch but they said they have taken injectors apart and they know the good injector cleaner helps for sure.
so i run it.
