Default Best fuel injector and top end cleaners?

So, my car is racking up the miles now and I just wanted to know what are the best fuel injector and top end cleaners? I have heard a lot don't even work.
Thanks!

Unless you're taking the injectors out to have them professionally done then regular gas has enough detergent in it.

But what the hell do you mean by top end cleaners?

44k is pretty good by BG - goes in the gas tank - use on 1/4 tank for higher concentratoin in ur gas

Top end cleaners are 50/50 because they can cause internal and sometimes external seals to start leaking - seen a couple of cars that started burning oil after some sea foam in the intake manifold.

Hmm, Ill just stay away from top end then. Ill just take a good look at everything this week because I think it may be burning oil at high rpms.
Thanks guys
