It is extremely critical that you know how to clean your fuel injector, because deposits can form at the tip of the injector, and once this occurs, things only become progressively worse. The major cause for the formation of these fuel deposits is when a completed heated engine is shut off, the water pump does not circulate cool air.

Thus, the engine temperature instantly shoots up, and any fuel left at the tip of the fuel injector is immediately subjected to a "heat soak" period, where it is immediately baked onto your injector. So what can be done to clean your fuel injector, so that you don't have a dangerous porous mass constantly forming? Here are 3 must know fuel injector cleaning tips.

Cleaners which are added to the fuel tank may not be effective in cleaning your fuel tank and this may not be really helpful.

Additives help in keeping the injectors free of dust, dirt and grim and hence oil companies manufacture these additives so that the fuel injector remains healthy and in working condition.

However a downside to be considered is that additives are often attributed to making the intake valve deposits worse, however there are measures you can use to keep your intake valves clean as well.

It is advised that you go in for fuels which are branded so that your fuel injector remains neat and free from harmful deposits.

Though you would have to shell out extra money for these branded fuels, it prevents toxic deposits from getting accumulated in the injector.

Clean your fuel injector every 25,000 miles - it is suggested that you make an effort to clean your injector every 25,000 miles, so that you do not strain your vehicle in the instance that there is a buildup of deposits.

Many of the injector models were not successful in sorting out the problem, on the contrary it led to further problems

You will have to do less fuel injector cleanings if you simply switch from a pintle model, to the disc, ball, and seat design. Adopting the disc design would lessen the formation of deposits, but it would not completely wipe out the problem. Replacement of the fuel injector would help in cleaning the build up if the normal cleaning does not work out.
