Fuel Injector Flushed Out
I wasnt sure where to post this but i figured here would be the best place . Anyways i took my car to wal-mart to get an oil change and i noticed they had a fuel injector flushing service for only $20!!!!! Normally other plces charge like anywhere from $80 to $200 and i figured thats a heck of a deal my car currently has 21000 miles on it .so i decided to give a try .First they remove the vac hose and turn the car on with them pumping some sort of liquad through the vac hose. they also put normal injector cleaner in the gas .well when the liquad is finished ruuning through they give the car a break .Then they turn it back on and all this gunk came out of the exhaust .When they finished and i finally got to test drive it the total regain of perfomance of the car was like it was brand new . It responds alot better and i can really feel the difference . So for those who have a wal-mart with a service center in it (with that option) and have a bit of mileage on their car give a try. Believe me i was satisfied with it.
i have a aem cai a pacesetter exhaust catback and a eco sun automotive hyper voltage system but thats more of a thing to help with better sound through my subs then anything else

How do you suppose they flushed out your injectors through the vaccum hose.
And where did the fluid they put in go when they poured it in the vaccum hose.
Sound like they cleaned the combustion chamber !
Anyone have any answer because I can't think of what they actually did.
Poured it into the throttle body.
Injector cleaner I can buy myself for like 6 bucks or lesss.

true you can buy fuel injector cleaner that pours in the gas tank your self but you cant walk into a autozone and purchase the stuff used through the vac . believe me after i had it done thats the first thing i thought of .well maybe i can do it myself well the gumout brand bottle they used is not availible to the average consumer. try goggle alittle there is none of that i found (injection cleaner) that goes through the vac hose. i tried advance auto parts autozone and scotts speed shop.now it seems it flushes the entire motor out other then the injectors thats true if that is what you are asking?

Last time I took my car to wal-mart for an oil change they had some kids working there. They have a window where you can see into the garage, I peeked in and caught them messing around with my car, revving the engine, laughing, honking the horn. After that I never take it there anymore. I go to a chevy dealer, atleast I know they'll be professional about it.
