Subject:      Re: Diesel as carb/injector cleaner?
Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed

Rather than try to reinvent the wheel, why not use something designed to do the job? If you want your injectors cleaned, use some injector cleaner.

I think that the cost argument is pretty thin. Injector cleaner doesn't cost that much. I would argue that no one needs to ever buy a hammer. Rocks, bricks, and hunks of metal can all be used to drive nails or other stubborn objects, but ask any good mechanic about his tools. Just about any job is easier, faster, and safer with the right tools.

Can you use diesel fuel? Probably, but I don't know. Should you? I wouldn't. If I wanted my injectors cleaned I would buy something designed to clean injectors: injector cleaner.

Just my 2 cents.

Bruce
