Default Fuel System Cleaner..Which?

I have a can of Sea Foam and would like to know if anyone has used it with good results and no problems. At 32K I think it might do some good to the injecters and valve train and clean carbon,etc.,etc. What do ya think??

I have heard allot of positive feedback about sea foam. I use Amsoil gas additive and have had good luck with it in all my vehicles.

Nothing works for me....FI is hardly a new concept. Gasoline has all the detergents needed already in it.

i agree, gas has all the detergent needed. unfortunately, the station where you buy your gas has added water to it (either willingly or not). every now and again i will run a couple ounces of marvel mystery oil through and that helps to dispel any contaminants that you may pick up.
