Injectors cleaning.
For cleaning injectors I use a service run by  HGL Motors in Hull.
http://www.injectorcleaning.co.uk/
They do a return postal service, normally within 48 hours !
They use a ANSU machine which ultrasonically cleans deposits within the injector.
These injectors have covered 70,000 miles, ok that's not too many miles, but they have been 
soaking in petrol for 13 years, so I would have expected some degradation in performance.

 

HGL will clean aswell as replace filter baskets and orings.

 

 

Nozzle end

 

Injector idents.

 

Fuel pressure pulse damper.

 

 

Injector manifold assembly.

 

HGL will include a report demonstrating before and after flow performance. 
The numbers represent cc flowed during 30secs.

 

Was the clean worth it ?, well for now, on paper at least I think so

160mph / 60 = 2.666 miles per minute

70ltr / 30min = 2.333 ltr per minute

so at 160mph 2.333 ltr burns every mile.

operating at 96.5% that's 2.251ltr, ie 0.0081 ltr (81cc) fuel missing from
the combustion for that duration.......1/4 can of coke................
