Re: fuel injection
now that this is out of the way, use the usual fuel injector cleaners sold in any autoparts store? they are to be put on the fuel tank. injectors not the same as carbs? I used to work mainly with carbureted cars, so can relate to that

Re: fuel injection
Thats not really necessary, you'd be better served just cleaning them with full injector cleaner and maintaining other areas of the engine.
