Title: Fuel system cleaner
Post by: Alfa 155 on October 07, 2022, 09:14:35 pm
When your Mazda goes for a service the agents tells you that a fuel cleaner needs to be added to get rid of the carbon on the injectors. Now this fuel cleaner is extremely expensive. Is there a cheaper alternative one can use? Mazda says if you put any cleaner in but theirs it will damage the fuel system. Is that true??
