Injector Fluid question

I rejected the injector fluid cleaning at the dealer. I didnt think a $70.00 bottle of fluid was worth it. Any idea of what brand to buy instead?
Thanks

If you live in the midwest, be forewarned that the quality of the Gasoline has degraded in the last 18 months to the point where the EPA and GM launched an investigation into the reason for all the injector failures recently. Obviously, this pointed to the poor gas. Wouldn't hurt to clean the injectors if you live up this way.

If you must, use BG44K. It is the best there is.
