  i'm not sure how to clean the injectors other than using an injector
cleaner. the problem is that cis injectors don't function like 'normal'
injectors. the cis ones vibrate thousands of times a second. it's only
after a while that they wear out. hence the reason that it's best to
replace all four injectors at once or replace a bad one with a used one
(for a similar amount of fuel use). when you DO use the injector
cleaner, it's mostly just cleaning your valves. if you've got
particulates in the system, chances are that they'll pass out through
the injectors if it gets past the filter.
