SF Bay Area Injector testing

Hey there Bay Area fans.
I need to find a shop that can test my injectors ('75 240D W115) and hopefully has been used by someone in the past with good results.
The closest shops for me are in Portland, OR and I have no background on them.
Thanks for any help you can lend.

swiss motors in larkspur claimed they could do it

I called them a few weeks ago and they claimed to have the equipment in house to do bench testing of diesel injectors. I think they planned on charging me something like .75 of a $90 shop hour, but I am not quotable on that.

I would have done it, but I have suspension issues to solve first.

Maybe someday I will get around to fixing that hot idle shaking issue.

Really a cool shop (if you like lots of injector parts). Gus tested my injectors while I waited. It took about 15 minutes for 6.
