Where do you guys have your fuel injectors checked/cleaned? I bought a set of 30# ones a while back & something is wrong with at least one of them. Need to have them checked.
Thanks,
Scot

I've wondered about this also - no easy way to do it in the home shop?

Scot I did a search on this and found where a guy made his own setup. Basically used a 9v transistor battery to open the injector and used pressurized cleaner to clean them. Same guy also sold the little filter and o-rings to replace afterwards. Cost about $25. If I find it, I'll send the link.

Found it. http://fordfuelinjection.com/?p=82

Here's the one that used the 9v battery http://specthismiata.com/2008/06/15/injector-cleaning-at-home/

I have had great luck with the procedure in the first link. Done it several times and it works great.
I am going to try and build my on test stand to measure flow.
