Eech.. save your money. At that rate this newsgroup should
cost $50 a day. At least this group has more information than
some huxter selling instructions.

For fuel injection the can is actually under about 30-40 psi of pressure
and the cleaner gets pushed into the rail.

It goes like this:

1) disable or bypass stock fuel pump (connect hoses so the gas just
flows back to fool the computer)
2) plug the fuel rail ports
3) screw in a pressurized can of heavy duty injector cleaner/fuel into
the rail pressure port.
4) start car and run till it quits
5) put every thing back and run car for a few miles.

The injector cleaner used is not safe for the fuel pump or hoses, that's why
you have to feed it directly into the rail.

The remainder of servicing includes replacing the fuel filter and maby
cleaning/checking the injectors and replacing O rings if there are leaks.

Adding a bottle of fuel injector cleaner (NOS brand or Valvoline etc) to
the fuel tank with a fill-up is about all you need to do. And then only
once a year or so. The exception being if you get a tank of crapoline
that requires draining and flushing.
