was at pepboys recently & saw this stuff called lucas fuel injector cleaner. read the whole bottle and it sounds like a good product. did some research on cl & read some mixed reviews. just wanted to see if any1 on here has tried the stuff? and if so, if the results were as good as the bottle says. thanks in advance for any replys.

I've been using it on my Touareg and ML320...works great. I gained about 2-3 mpg.

Lucas and BG products are both great !

I used it in the SC.. I notice a difference in gas mpg, and seemed to run smoother.

I've used it and have had no issues. I didn't pay attention to any performance issues though, as I typically put it in and forget about it.

I recommed seafoam...cleans ur whole fuel system, you can also put it in oil and clean your engine internals, you can clean ur throtle body with it, its amazing stuff....

Lots of reviews on this stuff in the net..

How often should we be using the fuiel injector cleaner?

I've used this Lucas Fuel Injector Cleaner on my RX and many other cars. It seems to work the best out of all the other ones. But I have yet to try Amsoil Fuel Injector Cleaner which seems to be a good one.

Lucus is very mild compared to other cleaners out there. BG44K is stronger and probably more effective, but it also cost quite a lot more.

I've used Lucas only because I can get it locally. I run a higher concentration than what's stated on the bottle and it helped my car quite a bit. I had injectors ticking and the problem went away after one run of Lucas.

...I use the Lucas also and can't say that i've noticed a mpg gain,but the car seems to run smoother with it.I usually take a weekend trip once a month and use it in the fillup before i hit the road ed

Amsoil is great...been using it over 15 years in rx-7's and supras, 300zx's, etc etc.

I really am a believer in the Lexus induction service where they hook up a vacuum to your exhaust and suck the carbon build up OUT....I've always wondered as you see that nasty stuff dripping out of your exhaust (only sometimes) after you use injector cleaner what MORE stuff is still in there. Seems like that service is more comprehensive than just adding a bottle to your gas, IMO of course

Used Lucas and Seafoam, both great. Also used Chevron Professional. Have actually used a scope for before and after shots and have seen considerably cleaner combustion chambers after a few shots.

I am very sure I would not go as far as you suggest; however, on both motorcycles and cars, it is the best ever for injectors--only thing better would be to disassemble or buy new ones.... that vaccum is just pulling crude out of the exhasuat pipe and mufflers, etc. Not the injectors or cyclinders

Must use it a few times per instructions, but do it constantly over a week or so.
