Fiero V6-173 2.8L (1986)
AFTER THE INJECTORS ARE CLEANED, OWNERS SHOULD BE ADVISED THAT USE OF FUELS WITH DETERGENT
ADDITIVES SHOULD KEEP THE INJECTORS CLEAN. PREMIUM UNLEADED GASOLINES GENERALLY CONTAIN
LOWER LEVELS OF MATERIALS BELIEVED TO FORM DEPOSITS, AND HIGHER LEVELS OF DETERGENTS THAN
REGULAR UNLEADED GASOLINES. THEIR OCCASIONAL USE COULD HELP PREVENT FUTURE INJECTOR DEPOSIT
FORMATION.
There are encouraging signs that oil companies are addressing deposit formation and will be providing regular and premium unleaded gasolines with
higher levels of detergents which can prevent and in some cases even remove injector deposits. This will be a welcome development not only for Pontiac
owners, but also for owners of other domestic and foreign cars equipped with port fuel injection system. Local gasoline advertising is one guideline for
selecting fuels with high detergent content.
