Injector Cleaner& Turbo engines

[MrFlibbles]

Back in the day when i was running the old BM, I was a big fan of running injector cleaner through the system, - it seemed to make a huge difference.

Question is - is it safe to use such injector cleaning products on turbo engines? Presumably the injector gunk has to go somewhere - will it end up knackering the turbo?

I would treat most similar "cleaning" products as a waste of money, in a similar fashion to oil additives.

They would do no good, or harm to the turbo.

Fuel injector cleaner will do no harm to the turbo.

The turbo is upstream of the injectors (unless your'e running an ancient draw-through turbo system) - so no harm, but also not likely to make much difference.
Best best is to remove them and get them done properley.
