Default Clean your injectors

I cleaned my injectors this morning. The whole procedure took about an hour and the engine idles like a Swiss watch now. This engine is so easy to work on!

What did you use?

I've been having on/off throttle transition hesitation issues that seem to improve when I run a high concentrated cleaner in the tank so I figured once I get the time I'll remove the injectors and have them cleaned.

I used spray carb cleaner on the injectors and the intake seats. It worked almost instantly.

If you clean them, remember to replace the o-rings, cushions and seals. It's abut 38.00 in parts from the dealer.

Yes. You have to. It's very simple to remove the fuel rail on the S2000.

How bad were they?

I may try this method first before I send them off to a shop.

trustbran: I can post a how to when I do it. Not sure when that will be though. Hopefully next week.
