cleaning fuel injectors

This shows how fuel injectors are cleaned on an off-car injector cleaning machine.
The machine energizes the injectors as if they were running on the engine solvent flows through the injectors to remove fuel varnish deposits.

This is not the way to clean injectors at all. They need to be stripped completely, and then cleaned in an ultrasonic bath at least.

[SSCONCEPTZ]

As Im sure they get a good cleaning, Im 100% sure that shortens the life of them as well.

good clean but i will just buy new compared to paying a couple hundred for this

@SSCONCEPTZ Why do you suppose it shortens the life of the injectors? And who cares if the injectors are all fouled.

[flanksteak2]

@TheChiefEngineer How do you strip something that can't be disassembled?

Thumbs up if your computer didnt respond after the video!

@SSCONCEPTZ no matter what they were going to be shooting fuel mixed with a cleaner on or off car so really life is not shortened

@flinchless “It’s not their fault that they died in a freak gasoline fight accident.”

@shades2 like the model "meecus" off Zoolander

That is actually how FORD MOTOR COMPANY used to clean their injectors 15 years ago. Also it is good for checking spray pattern,and flow rate.

[Spadadiforza]

Actually this bench is more to test the spray pattern and then afterwards, graduated containers are added to check flow rate variation between injectors.
