Does anybody know how to take apart 450's?
 

I just bought a set of 450's and one of the pintle caps is cracked, I want to clean them up since they look pretty shitty and dont know how to take them apart. there seems to be a pin going through the blue top does this come out? I just dont want to rip on them and break somthing. any help would be appreciated.

You don't take them apart to clean them. The pintle cap has zero effect on function.

The proper way to clean them (internally) is to run pressurized cleaning solution through them.

To make them look pretty, get to scrubbin with some steel wool.

thanks, but isnt there some screens in there? I see you can buy some kits on ebay that have some screen included so i figured there must be some way to disasemble them.
How do you run "pressurized cleaning solution" through them, they look dry inside like they havent been used in awhile

Re: Does anybody know how to take apart 450's?
 

just take them to someone who services injectors so they can be cleaned and balanced.

you're just gonna ---- something up if you try to DIY

Re: Does anybody know how to take apart 450's?
 

You can send them out to be clean and balanced for around $5 a piece.

where can i get this done at? does anybody know, and do they put new caps&screens in them?

Re: Does anybody know how to take apart 450's?
 

rc injectors or something or orther

Re: Does anybody know how to take apart 450's?
 

I have an ultrasonic cleaning machine, can I just put the injectors in it, or does it need to be dissasembled?

If your so set on diy then do it. You don't seem to be listening to the advise were trying to give you. :3:7 Take them apart and clean them up and report back to us. "Hello...McFly..." Send them to RC and call it a day or diy and I hope they fall apart after you install them and you start a fire in your engine bay and then your whole car goes up in flames and you forget how to do the "stop..drop...and roll" and have a family member post pics of the carnage afterwards and then we tell you "We told you so." :-*

hahahahhahaha, i could deffinatly see that happening also.

Re: Does anybody know how to take apart 450's?
 

Yeah.

Immerse in a bath of fuel injection cleaner or other non-polar solvent, turn on the machine, and pulse the injector so that the pintle + seat movement helps dislodge sediment in that area. If you have a spare intake mani/fuel rail, pump, bucket, and some fuel line you can also make a crude but serviceable injector test bench. Pulsing the injector a preset amount (555 timer or Injector Tester like I got for $60 off the Matco truck) you can both visibly observe spray pattern and measure the injector's output by spraying into a commonplace graduated cylinder.

It ain't rocket science.

i dunno kirk, it's only the obvious solution other than fire. But in this case fire would be step 2. ;)
