I am of the same mindset. I don't go looking for things to fix.

See my post above with the injector test results. Chevron Techron Post #5

Those injectors were from a 92K engine that ran fine. My only clue that something wasn't perfect was the dyno test that showed it was a few ponies short of what I was expecting and that is my I had the injectors tested/cleaned.

I can't feel any power difference, but I wouldn't expect to feel it since it might be just a hand full of HP's. I haven't had the opportunity to get another dyno test done (yet).

But I can say that the engine idles silky smooth and feels like a precision watch. It didn't feel like that before the injector cleaning.

YMMV.
