RE: Injector Cleaners, what are they and are they useful at all?
Very interresting and usefull, thank you @Alex1320 , i would like to ask you about composition of injector cleaners, even if it's similar but I wanted to take a general idea of the ingredients.
Thanks for this great job
As the composition of them is kept as the industrial secret, it's difficult to say what is the exact composition.
However, we can make some educated guesses:
I've never seen the exact ratios, but the (admitted) composition is very similar.
Before the "modern additives" that are applied in the gas tank, there was a popular product with the brand name SeaFoam. It was not mixable with the fuel but it was applied via the vacuum lines.
Its composition was a bit different and included: pale oil, naphtha, and IPA. Certainly, it was not very user-friendly.
All the products always come with some 5-10 pages of documentation with the basic data about the chemical properties, physical characteristics and advice what to do in case of poisoning.
And the most important how not to set the products on fire :D
Very impressive knowledge for someone who's just guessing :D
I was in charge for asphalt XD
Very useful answer :) , thank you very much @Alex1320
