I just tried a bottle of Gumout Regane, found it at advance auto parts. I was getting around 200 miles per tank, now i'm up to 260 after one treatment. Not bad eh???

2 Qs. What are you driving that you were only getting 200/260 miles per tank? Once you did use the injector cleaner, did you notice any better throttle response?

its a 2.8 12V. Gumout Regane is an injector cleaner. As far as throttle response, no I didn't notice anything different. Just better gas mileage.

I get 330 miles per tankfull at and average of 24.5 mpg on my 01 TT.
Use some Seafoam in the Gas tank with your next fill up and that will
clean your injectors.

Seafoam can be had at Autozone or Advance Auto for about 5 bucks a bottle.

Great stuff!!

i used stuff called seafoam it worked awsome. you pour it into a vacum line or anywhere that will suck it up into you intake. you turn the car on let it run and suck that stuff up and you need 2 people, one to pour and one to keep you car reved so it don't cut off. you will fill up a whole parking lot full of white smoke so make sure you are somewhere other then in your garage and let it run and it will clean everything out. also a little extra you can pour a can in your gas tank. and the best thing is it is only like 4-5 dollars.
