Injector service

Hey all, my injector 3 is driving me nuts, causing symptoms of slow down shudder and mild rough idles until I tap the throttle a few times. So with that being said, I managed to snag some 706 tipped injectors from the local wrecker, and I'm attempting to clean them.

I'm soaking the nozzles with the needles out in carb dip for 30-45 mins each (doing each separately) and then cleaning them with steam. So far I'm two injectors in and the spray pattern looks phenomenal and popping between 2900-3000psi. Was curious if anyone else has tried carb dip. Lots of people I see are cleaning with just steam or Diesel Purge, and well I don't have the patience to sit there and just steam them out or run diesel purge through the pump.

I plan to install all four into my car this weekend and will post a follow up then.

Steam by setting nozzle on a work bench and running a steam cleaner through the nozzle inlet to get any junk that's in the tip, out.

Just finished installing all four that I cleaned, idle's smoother than ever now. Took it for a quick test drive, no more intermittent stumble from cylinder 3. I'm about to put the old injector on the tester to see if it's bleeding down.

By the way, I did swap in the 706 nozzled injectors, hoping to see a slightly better power and fuel economy. I've been averaging around 37mpg.
