It's supposed to clean carbon, sludge, etc. in the crank case (with your oil) in the intake manifold (fed through a vac line), and the fuel system (pour in the gas tank) Try a search on it, and also please change your sig pic before I do

Make sure you do it properly if you're going to do it at all. There's a DIY right here:
