OK, when I swap in my new motor I would prefer to have clean injectors, what options do I have for home cleaning? I don't really want to send them off for blue printing unless I have to.

fill tank.. put the most expensive and recognized fual inj cleaner u can find at local auto parts store..... run it until it goes almost empty..... fill tank again and repeat process.... thos 500 miles should have clean them good enough

You really want to clean your fuel system.One word seafoam.It is sold at all napa stores.Just follow the directions on the can.You put some in you fuel tank,oil and vac.line.

 

sea foam? that just sounds ignorant.. take your injectors out.. soak them in fuel system cleaner overnight or for a day.. or a year .. or however long makes you smile.. then buy some new o-rings and put them back in.. the end

 

see, I don't want to run a fuel system cleaner, I am going to have a motor rebuilt, so since I will be taking everything apart anyway I would like to take my injectors out & clean them & possibly verify the spray pattern to make sure that they are functioning at their best. So, in light of that what do ya'll say? Should I just get fuel system cleaner & soak the injectors in that?

 

well if you want all that and you wanna spend some money then try

yea, i knew rc would do the blue printing & all, I was just wondering if I could do a 1/2 way decent job myself? if so, what is needed?

 

Find someone that has an ultrasonic cleaner (like those jewlery cleaners) place some injector cleaner in it and run it for a while. That's what I was thinking of doing...
