    If you use a lower grade of gas in the car, I'd do it. If you consistently use a top tier brand, cleaning injectors is a waste of money...

    Even the top tier brands have plenty of additives in them and still does nothing for oil consumption & emission recycling.
    Cleaning injectors is not the main part of these services anymore (even though thats what they call them) -- I mean, how many housewives and white collar guys know what an Induction service does?

    I have seen many cars with over 200,000 miles on them that have never had a drop of injector cleaner and run just fine. Harly ever see a gasoline injector needing replacement.

    My opinion of fuel injector system cleaning is pure snake oil.

    I run the cheapest gas I can find and have never personally had a fuel system related problem any of our vehicles.

    You've just been lucky, I know quite a few people that have had clogged fuel injectors. So it's not snake oil, it really does happen.
