When using a cleaner is it better to use it inn-town where is going to take a couple of days to use the entire tank of gas or driving during a long trip where the entire tank of gas will be used?
Question about using injectors cleaners

Personally the best route is to be on the freeway for a long drive.
However if you can't, as long as you drive, the cleaner will do its job, maybe take a bit longer, but it'll still work the same.

Splitting hairs, just pour it in your tank. The sooner it starts to clean the better.
After adding the FI cleaner, just wait until the tank is at least 1/4 empty to refill.
The more time the cleaner spends in contact with the injectors, valves and combustion chamber the better it will clean. City driving accomplishes this better.
Agrees 100% with Chevro! Fuel system cleaner it seems to me would clean much better if it has time to soak. Just like any other type of cleaner.
I find myself adding a small amount on trips as well.
Just use an fuel system cleaner with PEA.

Especially true if it is an PEA detergent additive.

I agree with this line of thinking.

I'm glad you asked. Why haven't we discussed this before, BITOG?
Several times.
