You can see the spray patteren of the injectors with the proper lighting and backdrop. Fill the goes in side with Carb. cleaner, then blow it out with your air hose and watch the patteren. Should be smooth and an even conical shape. I repeatedly cleaned mine and only about half had a nice pattern. There're only about $25.00 apiece new. If replacing, replace the seal, plastic holder, and O-Ring as well. My holders and O-Rings were as brittle as corn flakes.

Only thing stopping me is to clean them is to get them.
Where are injectors located and how to get them out? Are they under fd.I will be opening fd to clean throttle body so might do this at same time.
