just run a tank of 50/50 e-85 and 91 octane. It will work better than any of that stuff you get in a bottle.

I was curious one day and filled my tank with a combination of 75/25 e-85 and race gas. If I had a stand alone I probly could have boosted the crap out of it. any way since then I have been using the regular 91 octane and getting 6 miles a gallon better milage.

with that said its not recomended that you run more than 50/50 the e-85 can be corrosive to some parts of the fuel system if its made out of the wrong material.

I have heard of people runing a 50/50 mix regularly just to save money on gas and havnt had any problems that I am aware of. to get any significant performance (and fuel milage) gains with e-85 you should tune with a stand alone.

any way the only reason I bring this up is because I have never seen any actual benifit from running any type of injector cleaner but have seen results with runing a tank of mixed e-85. oh yea I guess this all depends on if e-85 is available in your area.
