I have just been using super/Ultra high grade pump gas. No need to use any additives.

thanks, seems like I have 2 liking injectors......the car has only 30K kilometers which means that our local gasoline is pure junk......dealer is trying to get them under a "cortesy status" because my car warranty has expired, they will just charge workmanship if the factory agrees hopefully
