Injector Cleaner Additives

[maximum at weetamoo.com]

I've used both Techron and Ventil Sauber with good returns... especially
noticeable in cars I've aquired that have not used it regularly before.
I believe that both are basically the same... a naptha based solvent.  I
use a can or two just before each oil change... in case the additive may
"slip by" the rings... good theory?  Also, bumps mileage by about 2mpg
when its in the tank oddly enough.
