I have read elsewhere on the 'net some really good things about "BG 44K" fuel system cleaners.

Your thoughts?

"Fuel system cleaners"have been around for quite some time.They appeal to the "pour it in the crankcase and it will re-build your engine while you drive set."Anything that would "clean"your fuel system would eat up or desolve the fuel lines.Save your money for machineguns.

Most decent mechanics or tune-up shops will offer a cleaner that screws directly into the fuel injection system, and cleans the injectors.  I used to do this occasionally in auto shop back in the days, and it does make a bit of a difference on a car that hasn't seen such a cleaning in a long time.

I'd desperately avoid the stuff that you pour into the tank.  At best, it'll probably knock loose any varnish, rust, and general crap in your tank, and plug up your fuel filters.

I also advocate saving your money.
If your vehicles fuel system is so fouled up that it shows during normal operation, then it's to late for any of those fuel additives (which I don't believe in anyway).
IMO - Save your money, go to a reputible garage and have it cleaned properly.
