Not really sure about that. But once you get the new injector seals (rubber gaskets) give Mike a call. he owns the injector cleaning kit (the one that the service techs use). Just buy the can and he can hook you up. PM him and he can tell you what to get. I think the can costs around 25 bucks.

I had mine done when I did heads on my 3.0 it cost me like 75$ if i remember right for 6 injectors. That included all the seals and parts on the injectors.

if you dont want to ship out your injectors you might be able to find a place that does it locally.

in houston we have many deisel truck places...they have flow benches and cleaning serivces. they mostly do big rig truck injectors but can also do regular fuel injectors.

they charged me $7 a piece for flow test and clean....but if your injectors were really dirty and they had to go into deep cycle cleaning then it come out to about $15 a piece.

RC Engineering cleaned mine and they give you a print out of the before and after results. Was surprised at just how dirty they were
