toyboxII Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 Hi all--just had major service performed by the Toyota dealer. They reported that the fuel system needed a good cleaning including the fuel injection system and the throttle body which were especially dirty. Most of my driving is highway and I usually use some kind of top cylinder lube like Lucas. Every once in a while, I run some injector cleaner. With 96K miles on my V-6, I still get about 15 mpg. Am I wasting money on the additives I use, especially in light of the "dirty" report or should I use something else? What do y'all do?

linda s Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 It's the dealerships job to sell you as many services as they can. It is at many dealerships directly related to pay increases and advancement on the job. Truth is relative. Linda S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
