RE: [T3] Injector help needed

["R.J. Latherow" <rjl@inertia.org>]

I hooked the ocilliscope up the the injectors once-  It was pretty simple 12
v on/off.

I' ve had lots of succes resurrecting them by taking them off, indivually,
and pumping some mild solvent (acetone, etc) through them.  I use a spare
fuel pump, a battery carger to do the pump and the injector, and just let it
spray until its happy...

Mind you, this is rediculously dangerous.  Especiallly while smoking,
beathing, or doing really anything at all near the idiot thats doing it.
