Where can I get my 450 injectors cleaned & tested?
 
I think my problem of too rich is something to do with my injectors, anyone have any ideas where or how I can clean my injectors and test them to see if one of them is stuck open?

it would probably be worth it to just get new ones. you can usally find them for like 50bucks from the classifides. RC Engenering (sp?) will blueprint injectors for a decent price, i think its like 100 bucks for a set of 4??? with a 2 week turn around time.

*edit* we pulled a set of injectors and just cleaned with with gas, just cleaned the tips of them, it seemed to help a little bit. just make sure you get a new injector instal kit.

This guy has balanced and blue printed all of my injectors (8 sets) and does an excelent job. Turn around is a week or so.

Or you could just buy another set and find out there is somthing wrong with them also. I would just send them in to be clean then you will know that your injectors are performing up to spec. Its only ~$50 to have them balanced and blueprinted.

You'd probably be better off finding another set for cheap...

its just a good idea. you can get the install kit at like napa or wherever.---any auto parts store. when you put nre ones in they have to seat properly. so I would get the install kit. --learned from experience.

I would send those injectors off to the above mentioned place. --he has vouches, and a week turn around time is awsome. It might even be worth it to buy another set and send those off. You will tell a difference with balanced/blueprinted injectors. Well worth 50 bucks.

think of it this way, if you buy another set of injectors you're back at square one cause you don't know how well they work; sending of a set will let you know that they're working properly.

If you send them to Cruzin, he replaces all o-rings, and seals on the injector itself.

dam i just checked out there website, very nice and well worth the money. you should post that in the classifides section, there is lots of good info, and an awsome service at that. for ~100 someone could have a near new injector set.

New RC's would be a few hundred at least. Depending on volume.
