Question injector cleaning

This is my first TOY, 03 Sequoia. And I would like to clean the injectors. I have a injector cleaning kit mfg. by 3M and it uses a pressurized can with solvent. My question where on the Toy do I hook it to. On my Ford F150 I hook it to the fuel rail. Thank you for your help.

Uh, are you sure you need to do that already on an '03 truck? I personally just dump Techron at every oil change into the gas tank and call it quits. I'll look in my manual tonight (for a Tundra but still the same idea) but I imagine the same location for attachment also to your Seq. as your old F-150

I second the Techron treatment. The tech guys over at Rennlist, the Porsche board I hang out at, say that it's good to pour in a bottle right before an oil change.

That is young to be feeling a need to do that. Call Gettel in Florida and order a Top End Kit as they call it; the label reads Toyoguard afair. Put it on a shelf in the garage and somewhere between 60 and 90k do a cleanup. It has a pour in gas additive, a throttlebody cleaner and a top end flush that's drawn in through a vac line. It's some good chemistry.
