Need to test injectors without installing them

Ruffellbaker · June 12th, 2011, 06:41 PM

I just got a set of 24lb injectors from my neighbor. I tested the resistance of them and they were all 14.3 ohms. Is there a way to clean them without having them installed? I just wanna make sure theyre clean and ok before I put them on because theyve been sitting in a bag for a few years. The seals arent cracked or anything but I still might get new seals for them

Theyre clean on the outside. I wanna see if I can flush them out or clean them on the inside somehow before I install them.

We usually send injectors in unknown condition to Witch Hunter Performance; he cleans and flow tests them at a fairly reasonable price.
