The last time I took my 98 Frontier in for service, the rep said I needed to
have my fuel injectors cleaned. I declined. My reason: I get between 25.5
and 27 miles per gallon (combination of highway and city). I have never
noticed any reduction in performance or economy, since day 1.

Question: Should I have them cleaned, even though it still runs great?

Thanks.

Don't run cleaner through them unless your mileage drops off or the car
starts running rough.

You made the right choice. They were just looking to improve the day's
receipts.

Sometimes "induction system" cleaning can help drivability issues,
especially when the car/truck is cold. If it's running good, I wouldn't
worry about it.
