Using 2 bottels MB injectors cleaner instead of 1?
I wonder if it will be safe to use 2 bottles of injector cleaner instead of 1. I am planning to put 2 or at least 1 1/2.
Any advise?

I get them for $2 a bottle directly from the manufacturer.
How? higher octane prevents premature detonation as far as i know higher octane means better engine performance.
Yup yup.

Do you all have a link to the product you use? I've never heard of this product from MB.

Not exactly. Your car is tuned for premium fuel, from the factory. If, for some reason you put lower octane fuel in your car, the car's knock sensor will retard timing to compensate. However, it won't automatically increase timing to take advantage of your higher octane fuel. If you have your car tuned for higher octane, then yes, you will see greater performance. But, adding octane booster to your car's tank, will certainly increase the safety against premature detonation. If you're running a stock tune, you're just throwing money away though, since there's no real worry about detonation.

I use Techron every once in a while. Used a fiber optic scope and have seen amazing results in the combustion chamber after a few uses.
I would not over do it though.

Any octane booster that you are getting for $2/32oz is not doing ****.
There are only a few that are proven to work, and they are far more expensive (e.g. torco)
