I drive 375 a week and use up 1 tank, all freeway driving.

How often should I use fuel Injector Cleaner.

i typically use fual injector about the same frequency i change my oil and usaully right at the same time. from what ive been told on the cleaner you dont wantto run it too often. sometimes right after when i use it car will have choppy idle and what feels like trouble acclerating for first second or two during alleceration. however this always clears up at the end of the day and is prolly due to the cleaner breaking up gunk in the injector, gets clogged sometimes.

If your really concerned you can do one of 2 things. Either go to a shop that has BG products and have them do a cleaning to the fuel system and then do a bottle every couple of fill ups or if your really concerned, you can send your injectors out for a sonic cleaning.

It really depends on how crazy you want to get.

Depends on the cleaner, some are designed to be used continually in small doses.

I use Red Line SI-1, at a ratio of 1/5 (.2) ounce per gallon, so about 3 ounces for a 15 gallon fill up. That's within the dosage range recommended by the manufacturer for continual use. Been doing this for at least 7 years or so, but only on my garage queen.

It's too much trouble to ration it out for the daily drivers though, so they just get a full bottle of this stuff (15 ounces) all at once, usually once or twice a year.
