Cleaning injectors

[enordrum@hotmail.com (earl nordrum)]

The way I cleaned mine in the past was with brake cleaner.  Sounds funny but 
it worked great.  If you spray the cleaner through the injector with the 
"red straw" the cleaner comes with you'll see the difference.  After a few 
seconds of spraying you'll see a nice atomized even spray pattern come from 
the injector.  I used brake cleaner because it dries fast and won't harm the 
injector.  Just my personal experience.
