I was approach by the service center manager today and ask if I wanted to spend $109 to have the fuel injection system cleaned. I said no. Am I correct in my thinking that this is an unnecessary expense which I could solve by adding a pint of fuel injection cleaner to every 4th tank.

I would say every fourth tank is too often to run cleaner in ur tank. What kind of gas do u use as in what brand?If u use the top tier gas then ur injectors should be pretty clean. Like unocal 76 chevron shell texaco but I would use the cleaner like every 15k if u wanted to run some thru and I would use the chevron techron stuff its expensive but works great I think they sell it at costco in like a four pack even. If u use top tier gas then u dont really need that professionial cleaning unless u had alot miles on ur vechile and were using non top tier gas.
