How to clean fuel injectors?? 200 89DL

posted by  someone claiming to be Jean-Philippe Gauthier on  Thu Nov 9 13:58 CST 2000 [RELATED]

I read in the 700-900 FAQ that some persons successfully recovered clogged fuel injectors by prying them off the engine and cleaning them.

anyone knows how to do it??

    I read that INTER-JECT has a product that is supposed to clean better than anything else on the market.

    check out the web site under interject or inter-ject.

    It is an Australian company

    /// You can clean the outside with any carb cleaner but I have read data from Volvo that warned against putting high order solvents inside the injector. I cannot now find this information and I cannot absolutely say that it was not about older injectors. It was electric injectors though.

    Since gas is the fuel used I immersed the injector in gas and allowed it to soak. Dirty gas is poured out and fresh introduced until the gas remains clear after soaking.
