Randy,
Here's a good writeup on what it takes to clean injectors - Fuel Injection Technical Library » Fuel Injector Cleaning That little screen filter in the top is what gets plugged easily, as it's a very fine mesh and can "gunk up" sitting idle. You can buy a "kit" off of EvilBay for around $25 - maybe cheaper if you shop. Not sure what the local box stores charge -http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trksid=p2054436.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0&_nkw=ford+injector+rebuild+kit&_sacat=0&_from=R40 One of the keys, as I understand, is to energize the injector momentarily while blowing back through it with the filter removed. You don't want to keep it energized too long, as they are made for pulse operation, and you'll burn out coils with a sustained voltage and no flow.
What type of gauge are you using? One like a tire pressure gauge using the schrader valve?Last edited by rspears; 05-19-2013 at 12:10 PM.

Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
