    Default I want to clean my injectors

    I wanna send em out to get professionally done, in the city. Theres a place online that does a crazy job on injectors that are sent in, but I dont want to be without them for that long.

    Is there a place in calgary that does a real nice job?

    thank you in advance.

    btw, I can take them out myself, im not looking for someone to bring my car into, just the injectors.

    Its doesn't work as well as a service that cleans the manually. Theres a place in calgary here that I read about at these boards that do injector cleaning, but the guy was saying that they wanted 170$ to do 4 injectors! what a fucking rip off, thats like highway robbery!

    I can get a brand new fucking set for my car for about 220USD, so if im gonna have to spend 170, then I might as well just go the extra mile and get brand new ones!

    Anyways, the place online that I was talking about is cruizin performance, they do a nice job for 12usd an injector.

    check em out

    You could clean them yourself if you want, but why would you want to clean them at all? Unless you know they are causing you problems, leave them alone.

    I agree with that...

    But Reg Reimer from RCTS does that as well...will even give you a before and after print out on your injectors...it was pricey...dont recall what it did cost...but its cool if you wanna do it...

    I guarentee that a 14 year old car that has never had its injectors cleaned, could use a cleaning. It would give you better mpg, and just better engine response.

    If you leave them too long, eventually they'll get leaky, at that point you'll be driving to the corner store, and when you get back into your car, the engine is flooded becuase of leaky injectors.

    For 12$usd I'm gonna send em away. Its actually really easy to get at the injectors with my car.

    RC engineering does a real fast professional cleaning service. Its a 24-48 hour turn around service, but te are located in the USA. RC is one of the best known names in fuel injection components and servicing.

    So how do you balance them after you run the chemicals through?
