I've found an "italian tuneup" to work better than injector cleaner ever has. EGR cleaner didn't do anything for me when mine started sticking but taking it apart and cleaning it with carb cleaner got it working just fine.
Getting your engine good and hot should deal with any carbon build up issues that have occurred.
As an alternative, how about ghettocharging your car, it's guaranteed to clean all the crud out of your intake and exhaust systems

Today, having discovered that a really dry banjo had been left in my front garden, I felt that I had to save the poor instrument from a fate similar - or indeed identical - to being hoyed in the biomass boiler and, after a brief web search, I found something that appears to be ideal for the task, what do you reckon? Is this stuff
(pictured below) OK for use in the salvation of banjos?
I'm guessing that it would work, because the label shows a picture of a banjo. One thing worries me though, which is that no minor celebrities have as yet given their blessing to the substance. Maybe it's just because the stuff hasn't yet appeared on Dragons' Den?
I may order a bottle and see how it goes.

It cures Lackanookie too? I very much doubt that, even on Valentine's day!
I might give it a try though.....

Your wish is my command..
There he is, good old
Trichorobatrachus Robustus. Why people prefer cats and dogs is beyond me.
Yes, I too was surprised to find that the hairy frog is a real thing.

Hmm, if it fixes my foot-in-mouth disease then anything's possible..
