Default Fuel System Cleaners?

I was just wondering if anyone knew of a good fuel system cleaner for the entire system including the injectors. I'm a little Iffy about them because i had my CB7 done @ Shitty Lube before and It cause all kinds of problems... Misfire.. fuel filter.. etc... and also from my experience @ Flagstop they can cause quite a bit of damage to parts that were prob going bad.. but weren't bad before. Shoot me some suggestions. I'm tryna do it on my 00 DC

If you have a suspect motor and are concerned I would avoid it altogether. But if it's in good shape like the person before me said, everyone seems to love seafoam.

sea foam will eat away the oil deposits on an older motor and it will most likely start to leak oil
