Injector cleaning - recommendations please.

[v8s4me]

I’m having my V8S engine overhauled so it makes sense to have the injectors cleaned. Does anyone have any experience of the many firms out there offering this service. Recommendations welcome please. Thanks.

Thank you, and thanks in advance to anyone else who responds. Joe

It might be worth posting the question on the Griff and Chim forums for V8-specific answers. If you search in those forums for "injectors" and "cleaned" you'll find a bit there already.

Regards,

Thanks Graham. I've had a good response already on the Chim forum but nothing yet on the Griff one. There is a blue "0/T" flag next tot he Griff one. Any idea what that means?

Thanks

That means you clicked the blue "O/T" flag when you posted...

And no, I haven't got a clue what it means either...

Austec offer this service, at around £45/injector if recall (2009 price)

Sounds a bit expensive considering new ones are only around thirty quid each...

Had my spare set of V6 injectors done by these www.injectortune.co.uk £12.50 each but not actually got around to fitting yet so no idea if any noticeable improvement.
Don't really have a problem with the ones currently fitted but soon as weather gets bit warmer plan on doing top end overhaul (got pair of heads all cleaned up, valves re-seated etc. all alloy bits git blasted and r/c's repainted) so seemed daft not to do injectors at same time.

Mike, GIT blasted, sounds a bit harsh. I'm sure he couldn't help it.
