Hot Shots's Secret
Well I bit the bullet today and bought a bottle of it. I have been noticing slightly louder injectors and a bit of a miss. I will give it a try and let you know what happens.

Well I am one of those people who if I can replace it with something better I can't see putting stock injectors back in. If I have a problem I am going to put in some performance injectors. I am going to try the Hot Shot's and then if that doesn't work I will do a BG Injection service. I have no problem spending $50 if I know it will clean all those little passages even if it doesn't fix my injectors.

I'm with Jake - stock will work just fine for me, but when I do need new ones, I'll upgrade to single shots - nothing major, but for the money I think it'd be silly for me to stay stock - of course, for the money you're talking, you're 1/2 way to a Cummins 5.9....

talking about that other motor.Give ol' Nyx some bigger sticks when the time comes, and then let him get out and run.

I'm in the process of trying the product myself. I added it with a fresh change of oil about 100 miles ago. The trip down to BTS this weekend should give it enough time to work, if it's going to do anything. My injectors weren't giving me any trouble that I knew of - a little loud at idle, but nothing major. I figured though with almost 170K on the stock sticks, a little internal cleaning might not hurt and I could find some power that I didn't know I had lost.

Sounds like something that might be good to run in every 4th or 5th oil change.... hmmmm... I'd say that y'all cost me a ton of money, but in the long run I know it's saving me.... at least, that's what i keep telling myself!!
