Injector cleaner

Companies like Repco and Super Cheap seem to sell quite a lot of those bottles of injector cleaner, both for petrol and diesel. Does it actually do anything? I thought petrol companies already had additives to keep fuel systems clean?

Bit like Wyns , dozen different products they say you need in your engine . Just a marketing ploy

I read somewhere the other day that with diesel, there's more chance of the injector nozzles wearing than them getting clogged.

Depends on engine on diesel use the fuel additive dpf save if you have a modern diesel for petrol on a gdi mitsi injector cleaner won't do much as the benefit is to spray it on dirty intake valve to clean so you be getting mixed results depending on engine and if there is anything to clean

They're generally bought by ignoramuses trying to get their run down pile of poo to run better when a full service including a spark plug, air and fuel filter change, throttle body clean, ISC valve clean if that applies, valve adjustment if that applies, confirming things like tyre pressures, engine op temp, fuel trims and even battery health are good, ie something approaching a modern tuneup and last but not least not using our cheap, nasty and dirty 91 would solve the problem and be money far better spent.
