i dont want to spend 400+ on new injectors is there anyone i can send them to for a real cleaning ? or am i doomed ?? thanks

 

there are lots of places that do injector cleaning, do an online search for places around you. RC Engineering is one of the best known companies, I think they are in California. I sent mine to a local Diesel Engine repair company in my hometown, they were able to clean and flow test my Honda injectors.

i heard using brake cleaner will clean it up

 

how much did they charge you for the cleaning? how do youknow when your injectors need cleaning?

 

I don't know about your region but in our parts they charge about $100 to clean and flow test 4 injectors. I'm glad I did it as one injector was sticking and wasn't flowing the same as the other 3, at the end of theh cleaning they all flowed the same. I didn't have any symptoms I just wanted to make sure the injectors were working properly after I bought the car used with 55k miles on it. The car does run better now though.

 

ya i already did this, its kinda the ghetto way...lol

 

usually about 20-30dollars a pop. I have random cylinder misfire DTC's and cylinder no.1 and cylinder no.3 misfire. i just installed a f20c that has been sitting since 2002 and i already did a compression/leakdown test and checked the coilpacks, related plugs are also carbon fouled so im pretty damn sure its my injectorials ! lol

 

wonder how bad my injectors are with 120k on them!

 

I almost have 100k on mine. is there a way to check if it needs cleaning?
