Simple green x2

Sorry to hear your working at autozone. I worked there for a year and hated it. Hopefully your manager isn't a doushe like mine was. Don't forget to sell the bulb grease with that light bulb!

Bryan,

Honestly, if you're looking to clean everything up (fuel injection wise), I would run a bottle of lucas oil fuel injection treatment.

I tend not to want to run any "solvents" thru the motor, as most fuels and oils have so many additives that "clean" as it is.

If you want to do a tuneup, do the usual plug/cap/rotor/etc. etc. etc. treatment, change serpentine belts, top off or flush all hydraulic related fluids, and enjoy. I know what we used to do with Hondas was run .5~1gal of diesel fuel and the rest premium unleaded in a full gas tank and SUPPOSEDLY this helped to clean out some of the gunk. I don't know now that it helped in the slightest.

Have Jamie seafoam the system after you do the usual maintenance. Flushing fluids alone is probably the best thing you can do.
