Oil stabilizer is too thick and will make your car run slugish.
In the old days they call it motor honey and use it on cars with over 100K miles.I wouldn't recommend it unless your car is on the verge of breaking down and is running really rough.
As for injector cleaner I say just get new injectors is you feel your car really needs it.The solvent in the cleaner will just thin out and loosen the deposits and spray it right into your engine

Don't have any personal experiance with Lucas Oil Stabilizer but have recently used Techron fuel injector cleaner with good results 
AutoZone and Wal-Mart carry it.
Just be sure to get your oil changed within a couple tanks of using the injector cleaner. The stuff that gets "cleaned out" is going to be floating around in your oil.
