Default Fuel system/ injector cleaner at every oil change?

I'm changing my oil sometime in the next couple days and personally haven't ever dumped in any fuel injector cleaner or anything in since I've had my Lude.

What do you do/recommend for your vehicle?

Well if you're gonna put that stuff in, I would suggest some STP fuel system cleaner. If you buy the expensive stuff you're just paying for the name. Go with the STP stuff. Its cheap and it does all the same stuff as all the others.

unless you are having fueling problems, i wouldn't recommend it. Change your fuel filter, and have your injectors flow tested instead of putting that stuff in your tank.

I bought some Gumout Regane after further research. Going to put that in with my next tank of gas. Everyone seems to accept this stuff as good.
