No. Premium fuel has cleaners and detergents in it. That's all you have to do to keep your injectors happy. Fill it with premium fuel

Justnspace, is right.... If you usually don't use premium fuel you can try a cleaner additive and then use premium fuel occasionally. Also this generation is not direct injection, hence keep the ilx in a lower gear and let the rev's hang higher a bit to help burn off anything on the carbs (if there is anything).
