This is exactly what I did to make sure that they had a nice spray pattern. 
I did it first thing in the morning, with a stone cold engine. (hot exhaust 
+ misted fuel = bad)

I dont think that the Bently gives a procedure for this at all, but in one 
of the D-jet articles I have there is a procedure for testing all your 
injectors.

Basically you remove the injectors from the intake manifolds, all 4, retain 
electrical and fuel connections. Have 4 indentical containers. Put the 
injectors in the containers. Get someone to crank the car while you look at 
each injector. Make sure that each injector has a nice spray pattern. The 
car is cranked long enough to get a decent amount of fuel in the containers. 
You then check to see if the level in each container is the same. I beleive 
in the procedure I read the author weighed each container empty, then again 
after the fuel was in it.
