since it is 99 camry, You can clean your engine with auto-rx and add one of those cleaning fluids to your gass so your injectors get clean. Those will not give you horse power but can smooth out your ride.

Whoa! I read in the news article (link below) that most car manufacturers recommend never to use cleaning fluids and engine flushes. Not to disregard your comment, But can I please have an another opinion on this please from someone? I have a 99 camry too.
( I wish to get an easy clean on my injectors too, but not at a later cost of repair)

Brutal? You should go to some of the 240sx forums. They're a really tough crowd when it's 'unmoderated"
