Engine Performance problem
1994 Pontiac Grand Prix 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic
I was going down the road and all of a sudden the engine started to die. I pressed on the gas and it was hardly moving. Pulled over and I checked the steering and brake fluid and they were full. I saw on the front drivers side a fluid in the wheel well. It wasnt oily because it evaporated quickly so I figure gas. I smelled the gas too. Had it towed and the repair cost was 480.00. They are telling me two fuel injectors are bad and need replaced, but the other 4 will need it too. Should I have tried to just clean the fuel injectors? Should I have checked something else? I havent got the car back yet. Just need some input on did I do the right thing or shoulld I have told them to just clean them? Could they be just trying to make money off of me? Should I have fuel injector cleaner put in the gas to clean the others up?
I would appreciate any input on this
