For engine cleaning, I highly advice you look into Auto-rx. It cost more than other cleaners, but it's gentle on the engine. This cleaner is the kind you leave in the engine for a long period of time while it cleans. Most other engine flush requires you to leave it running in the engine for maybe 15-20 minutes before you drain it out. This is practically a shock to the engine and the seals may not like petroleum-based cleaners.
For fuel injectors, I like Lucas myself (running concentrated), but chevron techron and seafoam are equally good cleaners.

Auto-rx? I heard of it and that sounds good if i can run it in my engine between oil changes and clean in the process sound great while keeping the engine safe. And I think im going with the seafoam for the injector cleaner
