Yes, clogged fuel injectors can lead to rough idling, sputtering, and poor acceleration. Many Hilux owners have successfully cleaned them using injector cleaner additives o r professional ultrasonic cleaning. If the issue persists despite cleaning, replacing the injectors might be necessary. Regular use of high-quality fuel and periodic injector cleaning can help prevent clogging and maintain smooth engine performance.
