General Motors has asked gasoline suppliers to market and advertise gasolines that keep port fuel injectors free of deposits and help remove deposits formed on port fuel injectors.
The National and Regional brands of gasoline listed have been advertised to have detergent properties compatible with port fuel injectors. While these advertised claims are not based on data generated by General Motors, we have no reason to doubt the truth of the claims.
