Can't argue with this video. He covered all bases.

The other reason for removing the injectors & cleaning them is to replace the filter screen in the injector, most o-ring kits come with the filters & you can purchase the removal tool for about $10 to go with it or you could just use a sheet metal screw with pliers to remove the filter✌

If they had only put a " momentary switch" in the line to eliminate the tappity, sparkity, possibly blowing up something. Then one could leave it hooked to the battery constantly, and the switch insulated mostly from igniting over spray.

Excellent, I just needed to know how to use the kit thanks so much! straight to the point.

For about 1/20 of price of the Motionpro Fuel Injector Cleaner Kits, this DIY kit did a pretty decent result。 Good job and thanks for this display video.

You can use a little 9v battery. You dont need much power to actuate the injector valve.

Depend on where are you located (in this world) I paid $2.50 shipped for the kit. It worked great, now my 20 years old Toyota run smooth and gain 20-30% fuel economy compare to before cleaning.
Japanese cars are easy to remove injectors, took me ≤45 mins (1st time ever) to COMPLETE the job, I mean reinstalled everything back to the car.
BTW, If you have an older car, consider replacing a set of O-rings while you have the injectors out. Unfortunately for me, I did the process twice.

Your video is perfect. I was rebuilding a 91 f150 5.0 engine. I took off the fuel rail and broke 3 injectors. After buying the repair kit. I noticed they were dirty. I seeked out the tool. It looked too good to be true. I agree this shouldn't be a go to method. But every once in a while, tool.

Any time you connect a battery, you should always connect the positive FIRST then connect the NEGATIVE. That way it don’t spark when connecting. The same would apply here. Connect the positive to the battery and TAP the NEGATIVE . NO SPARK that way hence no flames or flame throwing.

When spraying shooting outt fuel injectors to fully know its clean it has to shoot out in a triangle shape

With the injectors from my 944 and 914 out of the car, I’m going to try this. But since my ‘91 Civic running l’m took your advice and got fuel system cleaner.

we must take the o rings out, i did the same and the next morning all the o rings melted

[olenaerhardt]

Before you proceed w/this project pls wear Face Shield! Very convenient and safe. So glad I did.
@4:02 All 4 o-rings were cut on the top by that white plastic connector after the cleaning. Probably it is combination of carb cleaner and pressure, and maybe it will be such effect on the old o-rings. I kept old, cleaned the injectors then replaced w/new o-rings. Maybe if I would put a new o-ring it wouldn't happen, I also didn't apply any oil. If oil + new o-ring maybe = good result. I used Face Shield, very glad I did. Does someone know if the injector can be partly damaged (burned)? I made a similar device, but w/push button in the circuit. It didn't work, push, spray, smth got disconnected, flied apart, so I clamped the button, like for 1-2 min (I didn't know about time regime for the injector to operate normally). The injector started to get hot I disconnected. Then I tried similar device, but w/pulse unit (set ~$35 on Amazon). Eventually figured out how everything should be done correctly, all 4 injectors click, spray, but I'm afraid that the first one is partly damaged and I don't know which one now. So that the very 1st injector in my experiments can it be partly worn, damaged, not really good if it still clicks and spray like others? I would appreciate any opinions on this matter.
About the Flow Test ~ @ 7:35 Can those Injector Cleaning Machines for $300 (type Autool) perform that Flow Test? Thank you for a great film.

[pjwoo]

The test was helpful and your commentary was also very helpful

[PoeSturgis]

Why this how to/opinion vlog don't have 1mil plus views...this was great for noobs like myself.👍🏾

My Toyota Repair Manual says NEVER use oil, use gasoline to lube o-rings and grommets. Great presentation and demonstration.

Whoa! Sorry man, I missed what you were saying because I was spacing out on your 1970's Lava lamp! So cool! 🙃
