    A look at the plugs should give some idea of a lean condition or indication of incomplete combustion, Post some quality pictures of the plugs. Usually injectors do not come go, though it is possible. If you do have a lean cylinder you are at very high risk of a major failure if you keep running it hoping a cleaner will fix it. To late for that, cleaners are to prevent problems not to repair them

    Also, VERY IMPORTANT: Anytime you have a FUEL delivery problem, you also have an OIL DELIVERY PROBLEM.

    MUST identify the problem, and determine if it's ignition or fuel related. EITHER is possible (especially after sitting for this long).
