Dan:

Thanks for the injector information.

I'm for the most part, a Chevron-kinda-guy, but do use Shell maybe every 3rd or 4th tank - 93 octane in both cases.

I ran across an article on the WEB one night maybe a yr. ago that was written by a Mobil engineer. I may have seen it here - don't remember? In it, he said to switch brands of gas periodically as different brands contain different cleaning agents and that over time, the same fuel wouldn't necessarily have the same affect as another as far as cleaning goes.

I bought into it simply because he wasn't trying to slam Mobil down everyone's throat and his theory sounded plausible.

It's likely going to be awhile before I ship of the injectors. I've got about 400 mi. of driving to do before I kill the current tank of gas and will likely run another tank or two through it before I start looking at spray patterns.

I'll update this thread if I end up pulling/shipping them for legitimate cleaning.
