I got the REV-X on Sunday and put it in. So far as of today, it has cured my problems 100%. I can't belive how much more get-up-and-go my truck has now. I thought it was pretty peppy before with the extreme street tune from innovative, but the Rev-X amped that up big time! No more missing when its cold, and seems to have more boost psi than normal. I figure its because the now un-stuck injectors are dumping more fuel in thus building a bigger fire, which in turn creates more boost The bottom line is, my truck ran bad before the REV-X and now it don't. It's costly, but not as costly as new injectors. I'll run this stuff until I can afford to get it fixed right. Thanks for all the troubleshooting help guys!!

Glad to hear it. Stuff is pretty amazing right? You're absolutely right though, basically just a band-aid until one can afford new injectors to fix those sticking. Did you use one or two bottles?

Good, I don't have to eat my hat now. Glad to hear it worked for you too! Your tires are going to hate you now.
