Take one typical used injector
Spend some time in my cleaning tank and this is what you get
Not the best results i've had but representative of what is achievable without taking things apart.
It won't sort out worn or completely duff injectors but worth doing all the same to remove any accumulations of crud.
Injector Cleaning
Re: Injector Cleaning
What did you use to clean them, paraffin?
I think I might clean mine as they will be awkward to get out once in the van. Is it worth paying for ultrasonic cleaning or does this do the job?
Mine works fine but that's not to say an improvement can't be made as they haven't been cleaned for a good while (possibly never?)

Re: Injector Cleaning
Generally you can use water and degreaser (flash works well), in an ultrasonic tank. I've also used acetone and alcohol at work before, but people are less likely to have those to hand at home.Disgusted wrote:What did you use to clean them, paraffin?

I bought an ultrasonic tank as I had a fair few to do. Ideally you should remove the nozzles but that involves a fair bit more work and opportunity for mishaps.
I bung them in the tank for 10 mins, then give them a wipe off with some tissue. If there are still stubbourn stains then i use a plastic kitchen scourer to remove the carbon (it won't scratch the hardened steel nozzles), and then put them in the tank again for 10 mins or so until they are clean.
Lastly make sure you dry them thoroughly as you don't want them going rusty!
Re: Injector Cleaning
Hmm it seems I can buy an ultrasonic cleaner for the same price as having them cleaned
I think I might buy one and then I could do my petrol injectors on the other car when I do the valve stem seals
