Remember there was a two year period between cleaning and actual use... Moreover, I tried to at least find one old injector that worked satisfactorily, but ended up replacing all with new Beck Arnley units. At this point I'm glad I did as the engine runs much more smoothly and dependably. Of course, my tuning-learning curve was going up at the same time, so it is a complex proposition. TJ<>< How much of a guarantee is a cleaning and testing from one of the major injector service outfits? Tommy, didn't you say that you had your injectors tested before installing them, then eventually found one to be malfunctioning, despite the clean bill of health from the test place? I'm still leaning toward replacing my primaries with new injectors, but I do have two other injectors that match my current primaries. I've given some thought to sending them out to have them cleaned, and tested, then swap them in place of the current primaries. I'm just not sure I'd be confident that they'd be OK.
