  • Car question for Spec

    I've noticed that my idle during car warmup when cold has crept upwards over this year and my mpg has gone down a bit. I'm thinking I need to clean my injectors next time I change my oil. What do y'all think, is it worth the price?

      It's worth it because it's preventive maintenance.
      If he doesn't check the oil until the car seizes up, I guess that's when THAT is due to be done?

        You need a new head gasket.

            It is my standard response to every car question. Every now and then I am actually right.

              Sorry Wezil, it doesnt need a new head gasket and no more info is necessary. Cleaning the injectors costs $100 + dollars and I'd like an expert opinion on its true value (the tune up shops will automatically say yes) for an acura RSX with low miles.

                  Just dump some fuel cleaner in your gas tank next time. And inflate yer tires properly.

                    Thanks for the input, but I'm not driving a Buick.
