Fuel Injector

Well the local shop says I need to replace or clean something about my fuel injector. I really can't remember exactly. I'm thinking clean them. Anyways, it won't cost too much money, so I'll let them do it, what exactly does this do for my car? They wanted to do it at around 60K, but it's not a little over 70K so I'm due. Will this be giving me anymore power? Or hopefully helping out the gas mileage a little?

Is there a problem --- Does it run poorly, Idle poorly?

If it doesn't run / idle poorly - your throwing your money away.

Don't bother unless you can tell the truck is not running good. Most cars go their whole lives without any issues with the fuel injectors.

If I were you I'd just run a $3 bottle of Outlaw or Gumout or whatever you preferred gas treatment/FI cleaner through and be happy with that. I do that about every 5000 or so miles and my engine runs great with 113000 miles on it.
