Probably not. You aren't going to fix anything by adding a chemical to the fuel. There are so many good detergents and other good additives in gas already.

Just to add to this i have to disagree about plenty of good additives in gas already.In the case of if its a top tier gas then yes if it isnt then no it isnt.There are plenty of bulletins that talk about this when coming across clogged up fuel injectors from not using a top tier fuel.Just wanted to add that to this question.
