I have had and driven some of our multi-port fuel injected vehicles beyond 300k miles. I have added the fuel injector cleaners into the tank in my own vehicles, while my wife's and daughter's cars rarely to never get a treatment of a cleaner. I will dump a can of Sea Foam in a couple times a year. Can I suggest this has worked wonders? Probably not. I do tend to believe any sort of lubricity improvement may add longevity to the fuel injectors, though. I have heard of some who add just a small amount of 2 cycle oil to their gasoline. I have used a bit of Lucas fuel injection lubricant, too. I think the cleaning and lubrication probably did help an older engine run better after a tankful or two. I do tend to believe we can have build up on the top side of the intake valves where the injectors are injecting fuel during fuel and air intake. I have seen the Sea Foam treatment done through the vacuum line to aid in cleaning these deposits. I tried this for the very first time just this summer. I cannot clearly say I have seen a noticeable improvement in engine operation, performance, or economy at this time. These direct injected engines, I think, may be a little different animal though, but I have only had my first one for about a year and a half, and don't have enough experience to have an opinion yet.
