    I'm not sure really, I brought it into the shop for a diagnosis and they told me the injectors were fucked.

    Try Redline SI-1

    Its got the highest PEA contents (50-60%), of any fuel additive. PEA is the cleaning agent.

    BobIsTheOilGuy has several threads about the product, and its "actual" benefits on injectors

    You can pick it up at O'riellys

    I can't get them done here, I live in Canada. But its seems like I can buy the injectors for about 50 apiece, so even buying new isn't too expensive. I will take a quick look around to see how much it would cost to have the cleaning done around here, but I doubt I'll be able to save that much.

    This is my order right now, havn't purchased yet, still unsure about the quality of these injectors. https://www.autopartsway.ca/secure/cart.cfm

    Ok, I'm still procrastinating, I'm ready to buy the stuff, but I'm just not sure if these injectors will work, the website I'm buying off said they would, but the part number didn't match on toyotapartzone. Any advice, these are the injectors, Holley #522-421
