Piggysniffer Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 Afternoon all just wondering about the injectors in my hawkeye, they have done 105k now, are we supposed to get them checked or serviced at all ??
stants Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 Lll you could remove them and send them off to be cleaned, depends on if you could be bothered Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
Piggysniffer Posted October 20, 2016 Author Posted October 20, 2016 Do they go wrong at this mileage or need cleaning etc or are they something that go on forever type of thing
GeoffLeggy Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 When I sent mine off they showed a decent improvement on the before/after test. Cant remember where I put the results now though.
Scoobyghost Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 Ive had it done on a different car. Despite figures showing improvement I didn't notice anything better for the car.
GeoffLeggy Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 Cant say I did either, just did it for peace of mind really.
GeoffLeggy Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 We spend a lot of money on premium fuel, seems daft not to make sure its getting in right!
Sandals Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 If you haven't done it for a while or ever... bang some redex into your tank once or twice... helps clean out your fuel lines and injectors etc
Piggysniffer Posted October 21, 2016 Author Posted October 21, 2016 Ive bought some redex advanced petrol treatment from Halfords today and stuck it in the tank, now I know it's early doors, but after about ten minutes driving the car felt smoother and dare I say it, pulled a bit harder and cleaner, I don't know if this is just psychosomatic but it defo felt better, maybe it's just raised the octane a bit ?

One of the test was the fuel additive to clean out the fuel system, car gained 5hp! I def felt a difference when i first used it on my car, but you will probably never feel the improvement again, I tend to put some through my tank once every 6 months
