Fuel injector/Top engine cleaner. Works great, but have a new set of spark plugs. You just may need them. I seafoamed mine and fouled 8 brand new NGK iridium plugs at $7 each

I think it worked good. New NGK tr55's and a fuel filter only set me back $25 or so. I definately made a good difference. Just should have done it with old plugs.

Sea Foan is good ****. Run it through with a half tank of gas and everything from the injectors down will be clean enough to eat off of. Pour it in the intake a little at a time and let it sit for a while, ten start it back up, and everything else will be nice and clean. This is where you'll produce LOTS of smoke and potentially kill a set of plugs.
