cleaning used injectors
sorry if this is the wrong forum,but these are going in my boosted car and i spend most of my time reading in here
Im buying a used set of rc 310s for a great price...i want to clean them before i put them in the car.Can i soak them in something to clean them out, or should i just run some cleaner in the next fill up?

Re: cleaning used injectors (D@nnY)
I sent my 1000cc rc's to http://www.witchhunter.com, it was like $15/injector plus shipping there, they paid for return shipping. The price is for cleaning and flow testing. I pretty good deal imo.

if you don't want the down time they you are pretty much going to have to risk using them.
I would just send them out and wait. think how much downtime you'll have if you blow the motor due to an injector fault/failure!

i gave mine to my cousin who was going to auto tech school. lol they were in the injector part of the course. so they did a flow test. everyone was wondering why he would want to run 550's. LOL "that's over kill" and then i just went to a local fuel injector shop to get new o-rings and filters.

if you're looking for something you can do at home, you could hook up an old fuel pump to the injector with a rubber hose, draw some injector cleaner through it, and spray by applying 12v to the injector coil
