Can vouche for seafoam as well. I use it in all of my vehicles. Def smoothens up the idle and slightly better gas mileage. Haven't used by in the F yet just because there's only 23k miles on it

I've used the Chevron Techron cleaner in the past..

But next week, I plan to pick up another bottle of Toyota "EFI Tank Additive"

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...ve-review.html

I've used it a couple times over the course of 7 years with great results..
