Yes-- the same chemicals that keep the injectors clean cause buildup of carbon on the backs of the intake valves, and a good additive will help control this. Techron is very decent, and won't hurt anything. AMSOIL PI and BG 44K are better. > I usually use >Amoco reular grade fuel does that also make a difference?

Using premium if you don't need it is a waste of money and can cause problems in some cases. Ford has issued tech bulletins warning that using higher octane than recommended can cause carbon deposits to be formed. Dick in Falls Church
