to clean my injectors or not to clean?
i just watched a video on you tube about cleaning the injectors on a 12 valve,,im getting ready to adjust the valves and was just wondering if this would help,,,my truck has around 500,000,,maybe a little more or less but it just doesent run as smooth anymore,,,im unemployed at the time and cant afford to put new ones in,,,any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated,,thanks guys.

Not to steal the thread but I have a used set of Delphi POD's I bought used. I was planning on installing them in my RC as is. I wanted to ask whats it normally cost to have a shop check the pop pressures on our injectors?
Sorry again for highjacking. Thanks for the helpful

Very happy with the improvements this made to my truck around 250K - I just had it done last month. Not near the money of new sticks, or even new nozzles, but still a pleasant smoothness and drive-ability improvement. I wasn't looking for monster horse power either. Part of resetting them was some time in a sonic cleaner to get all the carbon off the nozzles. The shop said they used that and some scotch-brite to gently clean up the patterns some. I'm not sure I would go through the trouble of removing and reinstalling them without having them re-popped.

ouch. I bet it would cost that much if I got the shop to pull the injectors out of the truck though...
I just did a set the other day. Came to $121 after tax for a cleaning/repop/horse shoe washers for the return lines and new sealing washers for the injector bore.
