I sent mine out for "service" years ago. I could not tell any difference in
performance or economey.

Subject: [VANAGON] '91 vanagon GL fuel injector flush/clean?

I recently had a "VW Mechanic" tell me that when he listened to my
engine he didn't hear the familiar "whine" of the injectors doing
their thing;  He suggested that I have a injector flush to maximize
fuel economy.   Do any of the Mechanics on this Vanagon List have an
opinion on whether a full injector flush/clean is recommended or
would a simple fuel additive suffice for preventative maintenance for
the injectors?

Thanks in advance,

Sincerely,
