Fuel Injector Cleaning and Overhaul
Fuel
injectors are an essential but often 'fit and forgotten' part of
any fuel injected engine. Components that exist in many modern fuels
can build up on the inside the body of the injector, on the pintle
valve, the pintle head and seat and also in the filter basket. Debris
from fuel tanks can also cause a build up inside the fine screen
of the filter basket, restricting the fuel flow rate dramatically.
Modern electronic fuel injectors are manufactured to such fine tolerances
that even the tiniest of deposit can play havoc with spray patterns
and overall fuel flow.

Under-performing
injectors can show many symptoms including reduced power output
and fuel economy, and poor starting, idle and driveability. The
worst case scenario - especially on highly tuned engines - is that
an excessively lean condition occurs under high load and a catastrophic
engine failure ensues.We encourage injector overhaul for any car,
especially after tuning work or engine overhaul. We have invested
in the industry-standard ASNU injector testing and cleaning machine
for this very purpose and are happy to provide this service for
all our customers. The ASNU allows us to test the flow and spray
pattern of most types of injector at various simulated rail pressures
and rpm, pulsed or wide open. The machine then enables us to ultra
sonically clean each unit before retesting to ensure peak performance
and reliablilty.
We
are now pleased to offer this cleaning service via post, starting
from just £12+vat per injector. Typically this process includes;
- Chec micro filter, o-ring seals and pintle caps
and remove where replacement is required/possible
- Mount injectors on the flow bench and perform leak test
- Test flow rates at various normal operating pressures, various
speeds and duty cycles to gain a full picture of flow characteristics
- Check spray patterns in both static (wide open) and dynamic (pulsed)
modes at various opening times and speeds between cranking and 20,000
RPM
- Clean using the ASNU ultra-sonic bath
- Re-test of all injectors for leak, flow and spray pattern
- Replace micro filter, o-ring seals and pintle caps where required
