I'm sending mine to New Era Performance for their cleaning service, there is a thread below on this. I just don't know the logistics of what I need to do to send them.

We can clean them for you. For $80 we will do a before and after on your injectors. We pulse them as we get them and then do an ultrasonic cleaning usually 15-45 minutes and then reflow them. Almost all the injectors pick up a few cc/min after the cleaning and with the sheet, you can place your injectors in your weakest cylinder. On our site you will see the "Injector Service" you can go in there order how ever many you got and send them our way. Usually, i can have them back out to you the same day i get them.

I would think the incorrect solution could cause issues with the electrical internals. I wouldn't shortcut this.

Im just going to wipe the exterior clean with a wet wipe, remove the o rings clean them in water and then dab a lil vaseline on them to moisturize them.

Im not going to soak them, I guess im just going to basically make them pretty.

dave- as of right now, we are only stocking enough 42's and 60's to match those sets. If you wanted us to flowtest a new set, we can do that for $40.
