Ethanol gums up engines - this is why typical gasoline since the 2000s will brick your lawnmower - need to take apart carburetor and clean to get working again.
Using ethanol free gas (usually available at Sheets, Wawa, etc) is best for vehicles, lawnmowers, and everything else. Better MPG as well because gasoline is more energy dense than ethanol.
Ethanol is the reason engines need these cleaners in the first place.
Ethanol is to engines what high fructose corn syrup is to the human body; they both come from corn, heavily subsidized by our tax dollars.

But, you may need evaporator cleaner as cheap try to fix the code.
If it will not address the issue then look for O2 sensors, likely to be replaced. You need to check for both before and after O2 sensors via OBD2 to see which one isn't good.
And the worst case CAT converter replacement.
If above are unknown for you then talk to trusted mechanic.

There are 6 packs for only $28 at Amazon and Walmart
Also if you use top tier gas then the cleaners/detergent should already be cleaning all the deposits out.

FI cleaner is best used if you have bad gas or regularly get condensation in your injectors.
Fuel system cleaner is best when you throw a code or once per oil change, preferably letting it go through near the end of your oil life cycle.

Good answer. If no exhaust leaks, evaluate the O2 sensors next.

You're completely wrong: I think that snake oil in the tank is much more likely to clean fuel injectors.
Your sequence of events isn't uncommon.
