Re: Benz C250 CDI vs C200 CGI ? Which is cheaper to own? Quote:
One recoomendation is to add some injector cleaner additive into the fuel, may be a a little more concentrated than normal.

Agreed, had this first hand experienced last week when our new driver got Diesel in Petrol Innova. He drove for a while before he felt that vehicle is not running fast , he drove more in lower guy and poor Toyota just carried on. He called me after a while and I got the car stopped and towed to nearest Toyota Dealership. They removed mix of diesel & Petrol , added new Petrol , cleaned spark plugs and added some injector cleaner that Toyota sells & recommends for Petrol engines , with less than Rs 1500 on labour for cleaning & similar for Injector cleaner and complimentary RSA , it should be amongst cheapest possible repair for any Car for such a reason.

Initially use a concentrated fuel injector cleaner for at least 2-3 tank full to clean the nozzles fully and them see how it behaves.

I am not sure of its recommended to use fuel cleaner consecutively for 2-3 Tanks , perhaps you should check with service station . Also check if owner has got the spark plugs replaced ? It will be a good idea to get these replaced these before replacing Injectors.
