So as a follow up from my last video on how to test fuel injectors, here is a video on how to clean fuel injectors yourself. Whether you want to clean clogged up injectors or simply clean an injector from a wrecking yard before you put it in your engine, this quick and easy method will save you both time and money. Clogged or dirty fuel injectors could cause a missfire, poor engine performance, a lean condition and other issues that should be addressed sooner than later.

Dude, the way you adapted the hose down to the carb cleaner straw to clean that injector was sheer genius! Never saw a better way of cleaning a injector before! Brilliant! I never had any faith in cleaning injectors or luck, but I will be revisiting that, after watching this vid! Simply Awesome! One thing I would recommend for your not so experienced viewers, is to use a heat gun to shrink the heat shrink and to make sure that there battery is a good distance, from the injectors to prevent accidental ignition of any fuel or carb cleaner. Other than that, once again SHEER GENIUS !

@@kasdelgrande4049 That fuel injector video, with fuel line and hose clamps worked well, but it turned out they weren’t my problem. If I had to do it all over again, because of the lifter issues I later learned about on the 5.7 Hemi, I would first take off the valve cover, disable the fuel injection at the fuse box (so the engine doesn’t start), crank the engine and observe the rockers. I could see I had two that were hardly moving. The lifters had shredded the cam, case closed. Getting the valve cover off is a process but in hind site, doing this first instead of last, it would’ve saved me a day of checking all those different possibilities. Hope that’s not your problem, but that P300 can be a serious bunny trail. Mine were the 3&5 cylinder misfires, so both on the same drivers side bank.

The heat shrink was not used as a source for the solution to travel through it was only used to go around the smaller tubes which is what the solution traveled through. If an solution did manage to come in contact with the the heat shrink it would be minimal at best and not enough to do any damage.

I just wanted to comment and give you a big thank you. 3 F-ing days of trying to figure out why i kept getting a misfire on cyclinder 3. My friend that traded me the scion tc I have said there is a lot of oil in one of the wells so he though it was the valve cover. Well I found out there was oil in every port...nice. I did an oil change, spark plug change, valve cover gasket change (which was bad), and checked all coil packs...and still the misfire. I don't have the money for injectors but i wanted to test it to be sure. I watched your trick and tweaked it. I simply taped the small red tube on to the injector port with electric tape. I made sure to back the tube off so as not to disturb the cylinoid. After checking port 3's injector with this trick, my problem was found. Ahhh, it feels so damn nice to have that piece of mind. Thanks again bud.

@highperformanceinjectorscom 7 лет назад

There are numerous problems one must check when cleaning injectors manually. Leaking. Fuel injectors have individual components - pintles, balls and discs that must be properly sealed while under operating pressure to avoid leaking. Fuel volume. Injectors need to supply the right amount of fuel under operating pressure. Atomization. Fuel needs to be under high pressure and atomized properly to provide optimal combustion. Distribution. The spray pattern of the fuel mixture is extremely important to guarantee safe and efficient combustion.

@TonyRomeNewMoney 6 лет назад

@aaroncake 8 лет назад

Done something similar in the past but it only works for mildly clogged injectors. If they are truly gummed up, they need to be ultrasonically cleaned which often also includes a back flush, then a test to make sure they still flow as they should. Also the little strainer screen needs to be replaced. If one has an old fuel rail around, an old fuel pump, a bucket, and something to generate pulses (even a 555 timer based circuit, or a Megasquirt and Stim) it's not hard to improvise an automatic cleaning rig.

@tarstarkusz 2 года назад

@@abdulmuqsittofie949 A really fast way of pulsing DC is with a file. Run a cable from the end of a file to the injector. Connect the positive lead directly from the battery to the injector. Then attach a wire with a nail or even an alligator clip to the battery. Then, drag the nail or clip across the file. It will connect on the ridges and disconnect on the low spot between the ridges. So if the file has 50 ridges per inc and you drag the clip or nail across the file at an inch per second, you'll get 50 pulses per second. I do this with other things to create pulsed DC

For anyone performing that procedure I strongly recommend a Face Shield! Glad I used! I made same device, but w/interruption button on one wire and used just different cones like from Gorilla heavy duty Glue and alike. Trying to press the button and spraying everything was flying apart, so I just pressed the button w/clamp (I didn't know about regime in which that injector works) probably for 1-2 minutes. I succeeded to spray out from the bottom end, felt the injector is getting hot, disconnected the wire. Then I tried to use a new set for cleaning (for ~$35 fm/Amazon) w/pulse regime. It worked eventually after some practice (on Mode #4 w/constant pulsing), but leaked a lot of Carburetor Cleaner, so I started to watch more films and fortunately came across yours, where you worn about connecting the injector for longer then 1-2 seconds. I'm afraid that injector I connected for a long time is somewhat damaged, or not, if it performs the same like others (on that device from Amazon)? Please could you tell, if it clicks and sprays can it still be damaged? See I put it together w/other injectors and now don't know which one went under those harsh conditions. I hope maybe some types of injectors can withstand those conditions longer than other types. The injector is an original injector from the car 2001 Saturn SL2 and that car is know to withstand many things. Thank you very much for the film. The idea w/reduced tubing and clamps is just great!

Yep it worked on my Cagiva Raptor 1000 (Suzuki TL1000 V twin engine). I coupled to a variable DC supply started at 5v and the injectors triggered so continued for 20 cycles each, thanks for that, couple carb cleaner to the injectors and pulse them....genius!

I think you could have used longer tubing..

Remember to ALWAYS replace the old O-rings with new ones when reinstalling the injectors. NEVER reuse the old O-rings!

@audimaster5000 5 лет назад

That’s very good advice. Have em ready to swap before hand or you’ll be wishing you did later when one or all starts leaking.

Excellent knowledge. I think an easier way for the hose is the hose on the injector with the cap on the other end.. and put a small hole to tightly push in the spray straw. Thanks again

@joeblow8426 8 лет назад

your videos are really great. can you please do a video on replacing old fuel injectors?

@foggyfrogman1 2 года назад

This is a nice tutorial and I can keep the little hose tucked away for another day

Use a small Srynge pump tube to connect, It should fit both fuel Injector on pumping side (put the seal on) and Carb spray extension pipe on needle side (Unplug the needle)..
