Quote from: SHOdded on August 09, 2015, 05:55:44 AMBG44K is generally considered a superior FI cleaner, but Techron is also very very good (OEM recommendation from BMW, e.g.). Neither will get any carbon on the backs of the intake valves, but anything from the fuel tank to the combustion chamber to the valve faces will get cleaned out. I recently put up a thread about ACES IV, which MIGHT work on the back of the valves also, but little data on that.No Costco? These are Top Tier stations:http://www.toptiergas.com/retailers/
Quote from: ZSHO on August 09, 2015, 08:18:48 AMI certainly agree with SHOdded,and definetly pour a can of B.G 44K fuel system cleaner in your tank at least every oil change for optimum performance especialy if your limited to top tier gasoline in your area,have been using BG-44K and Chevron techron for quite sometime now and definetly would recommend them,personaly like the BG product thats in a can and the label clearly says made for DGI.

Quote from: SHOdded on August 09, 2015, 07:40:36 PMTechron should work great. If you do an OC after you've run thru the tank, you will be even happier BG products can be had off EBay or Amazon or many local service shops. Go to http://bgprod.com to find the service shops in your area.

Quote from: BiGMaC on August 09, 2015, 05:17:53 PMBG products are apparently only available through BG dealers. The website will find you one.Has anyone used the BG Gasoline Direct Injection Cleaner (their part #s 271 and 272?BTW... BMW recommends Shell Nito Plus officially... I personally didn't like how my SHO ran on it. Shell is giving away a Beamer a day for 100 days to get you to try it.

Quote from: SHOdded on August 10, 2015, 05:01:14 AMWonder what Torrie found to adjust in the tune. Would be great if it is a "software" thing. But still doesn't take away from the need to periodically run cleaners through the air/fuel system. Hopefully no fuel pump involvement.EDIT: Pedal to the metal action is recommended to clear out the carbon cobwebs, so don't avoid it
