Fuel Injectors???????

hey guys real quick.....it says that our fuel injectors needs to be cleaned out after 15k miles....so i was wondering do u gotta take it to the dealership to get them cleaned or can u just use fuel injector fluids that u would put inside the fuel tank near empty that would help solve this problem????

Run a bottle of Chevron's Techron Fuel Injector Cleaner through it and it will be taken care of. You have to watch what the dealer says, they are a business, they are out to make money, and in this case they are trying to take your money for a not necessary service.

I have never had a problem with STP products, so I would think you would be ok with them as well
