Does anyone have a proven method of cleaning injectors. What is involved in the rebuilding of injectors. Ray Green gave me a method of cleaning involvine muric acid and injector cleaner and penatrating oil. Did that last month. Now the injectors will not pulse.
Here we go again. The persuit of truth.

Thanks Guys,
Mangrum, thanks. That's close to me. I could stop by the Bass ProShop for David(My David) while I'm up there. I'll call but do you know if they can calibrate the injectors as well? I would love to come to the meet. Since my engine is still out, I'll drag that succker up there. That is, if you think the gang would be interested in my unpainted, fiber flares, no interior, no engine skelton. I could remove the beer cans. Oh yeah, LOL. Really, if we can pull it together, I would love for the boys an I to come up. Engine is still at Autocraft Engines, but we may be able to pull it off.

Darisb, the way the weather has been in the west end of lake Erie, I wish I could drive them there. Very well known and respected company though.

Mark, I remember that when you did that, you found Jimmy Hoffa.

Slits, (gotta whatch that right hand when I type you name), are you sure about that? I'v used Muriatic(HCl) to remove the carbon soiling on the fire place lentel. Most grease is long chain fatty acids are they not? However, if you cannot get them covered with oil following use, it oxidizes metal, it seems all metals, very fast.

I was able to pick up two used ones from Charles this morning. I'll keep looking. What have I got to loose, I'll try HCl on one and CLR on another and see. I've been using Koil oil following since it is a great penetrating oil.
