Fuel injector cleaner

OK, I've had the 8 for almost a year now, and I'm thinking about using a FI cleaner, like Techron. Any reason I shouldn't do this due to the way the rotary operates? I assume it should be the same as any other engine, but wanted to check with you "experts".

Thanks.

Works just fine in a rotary. Regane is some pretty darn good stuff, BTW. Read about some guys that ran a tank with it through a Supra with a lot of miles on the motor just before they tore the motor down to rebuild/upgrade it. Said the valve seats and everything were SPOTLESS - really de-carbonized well.

I think it's a good idea every oil change or so. It's easier to keep injectors clean than trying to clean ones that are filthy and clogged.

Cool

Techron should keep your valves nice and clean too.
:D
