How do you clean fuel injectors on a 96 ford contour?

we have been using an additive to the gas, just about everytime we fill up the car. don't know when the car had last tune-up. had the car a little over a year, so far. bought it used from a local off the wall dealer. also, how do you know when you have to change the air filter? i don't know anything about vehicles. thought about bringing the car to a mechanic shop earlier today, to put it on a machine to find out where the problem is coming from...but don't want them to charge me for all kinds of different things that aren't necessary at the moment. one more thing...what happens when a sensor goes out on a car? any suggestions please?How do you clean fuel injectors on a 96 ford contour?Forget all the other cheap additives....they don't work that well. Get a product called %26quot;Guaranteed To Pass%26quot; as far as additives are concerned it is expensive...but its less than $10....put it in a full tank of gas and drive on the freeway until you are almost on empty. That will clean out every part of the system including the fuel injectors.



As for air filters.....just open it up and have a look. There is no time rule, if it looks nasty...get a new one, they are really cheap and easy to replace.



If you have problems after that I would look up the number of fuel filters you have and get ALL of them replaced. Most people never do that, not sure why but they don't.

Usually when a sensor goes bad, the check engine soon light would usually come on. It really isn't necessary to put injector additive on every fillup. You should change the air filter, when of course, its dirty looking. May have to actually pull it out to see the opposite side. Best time to get a tuneup done is about 100,000 miles on it.

Sounds like you're having some minor but irritating problems with the way it's running. If you have a Pep Boys Automotive store in our area, they are really reasonable and do great diagnostic work. Take it in for a tune-up, and ask them to call you if anything else needs attention--that way you will be able to make informed decisions.
Not quite sure Y. The best stuff I found and use is %26quot;Lucas fuel injector cleaner%26quot;. You don't have to do any unnecessary driving. A minor tune-up consists of oil, oil filter, spark plugs, wires if grungy or high mileage, air filter %26quot;rec. 12k.%26quot;, fuel filter on mileage 50k.

Your car has over 50 senors need more info !!!!!
find a shop that will sell you some bg44k this is the stuff all of the major manufacturers use to clean your engine when you take it to a dealer ford gm bmw Mercedes Honda Lexus all use it its about 15 bucks a can your check engine light will come on it is a self diagnostic when the lights on a sensor is bad. remove your filter and look between the pleats if its dirty get a new one
