Okay, it seems that people are putting all kinds of stuff into their fuel systems to clear out all the unwanted material, and to improve MPG.
I've been hearing of Sea-Foam, Lucas Oil, and Various other detergents/cleaners. I wanna get this ball rolling so we can figure out what is indeed best for our systems. So, What are ya'lls opinions? Personally, i use a detergent based injector cleaner every few months or so, not that it causes a big difference, but i like to think that that 6-7 bucks keeps my injectors clean so that i wont have to notice a big difference, and prevent problems before they occur.

 @ griff's comment!Yeah, i usually use the STP or the Chevron w/ Techron additive. (that's what they sell at my gas station) i dont even sync it up with oil changes, i just grab a bottle when ever i'm about to fill up every other month or so... But bad gas is not a laughing matter in Houston... Some places add random substances to the gas to make more profit. Usually water or some crap... terrible....
