Dropped off my original 19# injectors at a local shop for the ANSU clean & test. The injectors had 102k miles on them prior to the testing. 1 of the 8 injectors was failed the pressure leak test. 3 of them had bad spray patterns while the others were all fair. The Flow rate was about 12% degraded on the worst performer.
After the cleaning, we were back to as new performance with excellent spary, flow rate, and no leaks as rated by the tester. I noticed that engine start up is almost immediate now after the cleaning. A definite change in start up responsiveness as I used to turn over the engine a few times more before successful ignition....maybe the leaky injector dropped my line pressure too much?
It will be interesting to see if I get a mileage improvement also.
I still need to fix that stupid code 41,91, & 34 also which I am guessing will also help the MPG.

I also stripped and spray painted the injectors after the cleaning to restore their appearance.

How much did that cost you?? I've been debating having mine cleaned or just buying some Gen III 19# injectors

I paid $20 an injector which is kind of high, but i had same day turn around. If you go through ebay they are about 40 bucks cheaper overall.
