I like Chevron Techron, but probably there's other good ones too. Lots of people like SeaFoam.

How's the other tune-up stuff like spark plugs & wires?

What about dragging brakes?

I have been happy with Chevron's complete fuel system cleaner. But some of my friends swear by Redline's, I might give it a try next time.

FREE Injector clean;
Rev the engine to 5k rpm, pinch off the vacuum line at the FPR, let the engine go back to idle. after 5-10 seconds unpinch the vacum line.
This blasts gasoline thru the injectors at high pressure during a slow injector pulse.
You might trip an O2 sensor code

BG44K. The strongest thing out there as far as injector cleaners.

bg 44k ,, you can get jut a bottle to add to the gas tank or you can get the kit ( 3 pieces) where you hook it up to a vacc source and run the engine ( 1500-200 rpm ) till can is empty,, also included is the bg 44k to add to tank and a sprayer where you can clean the throttle plate as well..
been using it for years ,, does a great job
