I was thinking of buying the BG44K but figured I would try this first. Car felt totally fine on the way home. With the RP its even sold at Walmart. Super easy to get and only $13.47

Bought the same thing last december but a smaller size,my car was not showing any hesitations or anything like yours, but i just purchased the injector cleaner along with my royal purple 5w30....i noticed the car had a little improvement in torque after driving a couple miles

I know some will think Im nuts but I feel like when Im at idle at a light I dont feel the cars slight idle vibration as much. Seems to idle smoother. For $13 its a no brainer.

Well for my car (GCC Spec) Lexus forces you to put in injector cleaner every 10k km.
I get a warning light "injector maintenance", when I asked Lexus what they do they said simply add an injector cleaner.
So I've been doing this every 2,500km for the past 30k km. So far so good.
My car used to hang when driving on the motorway at a constant speed. Ever since putting in the injector cleaners the car has performed better.

Thanks for posting this. This carries some weight. Im going to keep using it every 5-10k miles. I cant even feel the car idle anymore.

I ran a can of BG44K, which has always been my go to for serious cleaning, and it made no difference at all.

They have that at Walmart too. I'll check it out. Went with RP because of the reviews and all the hype on the forums.
I know nothing about sea foam , other than it has a weird name. Is there an advantage of using that over the traditional stuff??
