diy injector cleaning? - BoostedW124 - 03-27-2017
They are out of the car. worked fine before just want to clean them. Is it safe to spray them w carb cleaner? Suggestions?

carb cleaner is fine, anything but water is OK. Just don't scratch them up

Disassemble them, soak in acetone and scrub with a chemical resistant nylon brush, then dip in ATF and reassemble. I don't know about cleaning the nozzles, on both my cars I did this while replacing the nozzles.

Do you need to re test the pop pressure when you put new nozzles in???

You don't need to if it ran kinda alright before, but it's a good idea to. They're usually worn out of spec by the time they need to be cleaned.

I just wanted to change my nozzles but was worried about not having a pressure tester. Il get em changed then.

Never pop tested mine, 617 ran way better after new nozzles. My 603 has had a few injector bodies swapped and idles like shit, I need to balance them
