Injector Cleaner - 1989 Carrera
My local Porsche dealer techie has suggested using an 'old' product that VW is now starting to re-use in their new cars, particularly direct-injection cars. Apparently they are starting to see a build up of deposits on the injectors of these vehicles.
This injector cleaner comes in a narrow, light grey plastic bottle carrying the VW part no. G 001 700 03 and mixes 10ml to 10 liters of fuel. Does anyone have any experience using this fuel additive in their 911? Paulo |

Try "44K" made by BG if you can get it. Use with a full tank, run two tanks, then change the oil.

I would do it with the oil change after. I had a 928 that needed a periodic cleanout.

Is 44K better than Techron? I thought Techron was the best available.

I think 44K is around $25 here as well. I can get it at the local parts store, and at the Toyota parts dept. I sort of ignore the price though. It's worth every penny. I should add that I let the 911 warm up thoroughly, then drive the crap out of it, holding rpms high and giving it WOT all the way to redline in 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. I do this several times during the tankful, and repeat. Do this perhaps once per year.

How does 44K compare to Seafoam?
