Replacing my 5.0L engine in my '95 F150 truck and just pulled the fuel rail and injectors. I want to clean the injectors. Is there a "home brew" for doing this or should I take them somewhere? If I should have them professionally done, do you know of a place to take them in the Concord to Brentwood area, and roughly how much does this process cost? I didn't have an issue with them, however they are quite dirty on the outside. They are the 4 hole spray, 19# stock injectors. The pintle caps look ok and the o rings seem fine. Just want to make sure they're clean. I bought a new, stock long block and have to move some parts from the old to the new.
Thanks!

Awesome, thanks for the replies. I think I will give them a call tomorrow just to see what they charge and if I can wait while they do it since I live too far for two trips.
I see a few cleaned up sets on eBay too. Bought some 4 hole spray ones for my Mustang a while back from eBay and they're working well.
