Ultrasonic is the proper way.

Wonder if bro will let me borrow one of his jewellery cleaners ::)

Indeed, and more importantly a decent service will give you a before and after report on flow rate and spray pattern so it will tell you if you did have a problem.

I've only bothered on a rare set I salvaged from a scrap yard, previously fitted to a Volvo with intergalactic miles. Even then, the injectors weren't too bad in the "before" report. They were spot on manufacturer's spec in the "after", though. I certainly wouldn't bother on a car that's getting regular use unless I suspected a problem.

if the car starts hot starting problem as I experienced discard all of them..

I did used to pop in some Forte once a year when I ran on petrol.  Probably still should, esp as the injectors now get little use.

I used to use Redex on the tractor, to help combat Asda diesel ;D

Tbh, with the amount of additives in petrol nowdays i'd have thought these fuel treatments would have been extinct  :-\
Then again, I do tend to use the full travel of the accelerator  :-X :-X

I was told though to get the injector needles re ground after 100,000 miles or so when I had the tractor  :-\
True or false ?
