Default Techron Fuel injector cleaner

I've used this on occasion with other cars I've owned. Anyone use it on the x-fire?

You should probably get the same result - they all burn a gasoline and air mixture.
Are you having problems?

I use it all the time, for all my cars, every other oil change or 6K miles. It's a great product. I drove my Volvo for 250K miles and never had any injector problems.

I'm not having any problems. I get a feeling on the forum that people don't like to use any additives in their oil or trans, which I agree with. I just wanted to make sure if anyone did use Techron in the X-fire, they didn't have any problems.

If you use Top Tier fuel you will never need to use injector cleaner.

From what I have read and heard, I agree with aschrager. I made a decision when I bought my car to only use Top Tier brands of gasoline and then only the correct octane. So far it's only been Chevron, Texaco and Shell. IMO if someone with a Crossfire or similar car is going to try and save a few pennies on gasoline they screwed up when they bought the wrong car. They should have bought a rice burning hybrid. IMO.

I use top tier brands as well, but use still use Techron anyway. It doesn't cost much to use a couple times per year.
