foreign fluids

I have read thread after thread about using ATF for flooded engines and/or to help with bad compression.
I've also read about using marvel mystery oil in your gas to clean your injectors, but nobody ever says how much to use. Since I can get both of these at work out of 55 gallon drums an answer like one bottle does not get me the answer I need so could someone please come up with more specific amounts!

thanks,
Randy
