Injector Cleaning Service & Supply

Cleaning and Flow Testing Service

Direct (GDI Gasoline Direct Injectors)  and Port Injectors

 

Cleaning and Flow Testing Service

• Initial Flow Testing

Upon receiving your injectors, we perform an initial flow test, which includes inspections for leaks, Ohm testing, assessment of spray patterns, pulse operation, and verification of flow rates. If your injectors are found to be functioning correctly, we will contact you for authorization before proceeding with cleaning. This approach helps keep costs to a minimum and ensures swift service.

• Complete Ultrasonic Cleaning

We immerse your injectors in an ultrasonic bath while simultaneously pulsing and back-flushing them. This process effectively eliminates all debris and deposits within the injectors, often resulting in restored functionality, akin to new injectors.

• Post-Cleaning Test

After cleaning, we conduct a flow test once more to confirm that all injectors are performing optimally. We strive to return your injectors to you promptly.

• Flow Data Sheet

You will receive a flow sheet containing data from both the initial and post-cleaning tests. It provides a fascinating comparison between used, dirty fuel injectors and the cleaned units. Refer to the example datasheet for more details.

• Seal and Filter Replacement

As part of the service, we replace all standard injector seals. To ensure we match the appropriate seals for your vehicle, please include the injector seals with your injectors. Additionally, some injectors incorporate an internal screen or ‘filter basket,’ which we can replace as needed.

• Pintle Caps

Injector pintle caps are often in good condition and may not require replacement. However, if you have broken or missing pintle caps, we can typically replace them. Please note that some injectors feature unique caps, which may require special ordering and additional costs. We will contact you to discuss this if necessary.

CRD Common Rail Diesel

Signs of a failing fuel injector:

 

We can inspect, test and repair most diesel injectors. Turnaround time for these is 2-3 business days.

Cleaning and Flow Testing Service

• Check engine light flashing
• Your engine is misfiring
• Rough idling
• A change in fuel economy
• Bad fuel odour or fuel leak
• Engine Surge
• Engine performance issues
• Failed emission test
• Knocking Sound

Not sure if your diesel injectors are faulty? We can test them for you using the most up-to-date equipment We’ll inform you of the test results and advise you on what would be the best course of action to take. You can trust us never to fail an injector without good reason.

Some of the tests are:

• Coil resistance
• Inductance (coil injectors only)
• Capacitance (piezo injectors)
• Response time measurements
• Backleak flow measurements
• Delivery measurements
• Backleak temperature

All injectors will be ultrasonic cleaned before testing. We can supply any seal ring or o-ring if required.

Injector cleaning is important for several reasons, primarily related to the proper functioning of a vehicle’s engine and fuel system. Here are some of the key reasons why injector cleaning is important:

1. Fuel Efficiency: Clean fuel injectors atomize fuel more effectively, ensuring that it is properly mixed with air in the combustion chamber. This results in more efficient and complete fuel combustion, which can improve fuel efficiency and reduce fuel consumption.
2. Engine Performance: Dirty or clogged injectors can lead to uneven fuel distribution, misfires, and reduced engine performance. Cleaning the injectors can restore smooth engine operation, optimize power output, and reduce engine vibrations.
3. Emissions Reduction: Properly functioning fuel injectors help reduce harmful emissions by ensuring that the fuel is burned more efficiently. This is important for meeting emissions standards and reducing the environmental impact of a vehicle.
4. Idle Stability: Clean injectors help maintain a stable engine idle, preventing rough idling and stalling. This is essential for smooth and safe vehicle operation, especially in traffic or at stoplights.
5. Reduced Deposits: Over time, fuel injectors can accumulate carbon and other deposits. Cleaning the injectors can remove these deposits, preventing the buildup of harmful carbon deposits which can lead to poor engine performance.
6. Preventing Engine Knock: Dirty injectors can lead to knocking or pinging in the engine, which can cause damage over time. Clean injectors ensure proper fuel delivery and can help prevent engine knock.
7. Extending Injector Lifespan: Regular injector cleaning can extend the lifespan of the injectors by preventing them from becoming clogged or damaged. This can save you money on injector replacement and maintenance costs.
8. Smoother Engine Operation: Clean injectors can lead to smoother and quieter engine operation. This can improve the overall driving experience and reduce noise and vibrations.
9. Preventing Engine Damage: If fuel injectors become severely clogged or damaged, they can cause more significant engine issues, which can be costly to repair. Regular maintenance, including injector cleaning, can help prevent these problems.
10. Improved Cold Starts: Clean injectors help improve cold start performance by ensuring that the engine receives the right amount of fuel for a smooth start, reducing the risk of hesitation or stalling in cold weather.
