Stanadyne is hard to find but works good. See if you can get a bottle.

migtey i think is the name of the stuff i used you pour it in the tank. and you take the can of cleaner that comes with the kit you take the intake loss and run the tube up inside the intake and spray the hole can and that stuff cleans all your sensors. The stuff comes out of the can at -12 deg. I could tell a difference in about 50 miles. My truck had 126000 on it so im sure it needed it.

Just take the injectors out and send them away to be cleaned if it has the mileage on it. That or leave it alone and not try the snake oils.
