Just changed VERY dirty fuel filter... Should i use some injector cleaner? 850 1995

I just changed a fuel filter which was supposed to be done a while ago, previous owner never did it. It runs smoother now, and I was wondring if anyone knows if It would be worth while to use some fuel injector cleaner (like BG44k)? Aything else i could posibly to if any junk went through the fuel system?

    How did you see that it's dirty? The reason I ask is that it's sealed. Did you cut it open?

    It certainly wouldn't hurt to run AMSOIL PI or BG44K through, and it might even help.
    Not likely any junk went through the filter, but you can still get deposits.

      And the BG44K will remove the carbon from all the intake parts, valves, etc.
