Sorry M_M, I assumed you had removed one in the past for some reason.

I ordered the injector service kit yesterday, $24.00 delivered.

Here are some pictures of the placement of the filter:

and in the injector but not seated:


I want to give credit to whoever wrote this web page on how to clean their injectors in the link below. I recommend taking the 5 mins or so to read his instructions. The names Mike and Debbie are at the bottom of the page:

Well I collected all my 'Patented" fuel injector checker parts
one can of Max's 8700 Carb and Choke cleaner
8 " of 5/8" heater hose w/ one ty strap
Air nose putton pushed compressed air on and off unit
one used trunk lock popper button off of a 91 Deville, not seen in the first photo
one lawn mower battery
wire and connectors


Assemble 'Patented" injector checker


The 5/8th hose fits good on the top of the injector. I turned on the air compressor untill I had 40 lbs of air pressure. I put the hose on the injector. Add a bit of the Max's 8700 Carb and Choke cleaner from NAPA, insert the air nozzel into the hose and hold the button down on the air nozzel. I pushed the button up and down and watched for a spray. I was rewarded three times. I had one that would omly drip at first, but was able to clear it up. I had two that I had to play with a bit to get them to un plug an spray. I have six working injectors now. Two have refused to cooperate. I am gonna soak them over night in gas or a carb cleaner of some type. I usually use laquier thinner for carb parts, but I'm not so sure if I want to put these plastic injectors in that kind of thinner.

6 good, and they have a nice TIC<TIC<TIC when the power is applied to the injectors
2 Deceased

Edited to add :
The two deceased ones are now in Berryman's Chem Dip for overnight.

Went outside and removed the TB so I could do a good job cleaning the intake around where the injectors plug back in . Got it all cleaned pretty good and saw this. What tha hell is this? :


I put my shop vac in the throttle bore and turned it on. This is the rear one, and I could hear and feel air coming threw the injector holes on the forward bank.

At first I thought maybe EGR path, as it is right behind this intake bore. But the air flow is on the other side of the intake.

The other bore has a shorter one, but it isn't stopped up near this bad.

Took my finger and feeled of it. Its simi soft. Not crunchy like burnt ERG waste is that I have had to dig out of SBC engines before.


Edit to ask:

When you guys have replace thte fuel rails to the intake, what method did you use? As a one piece unit, or take the two sides apart? When I removed it from the in take, I started on the forward bank alt end, rear alt end, Rear transm end, then the forward bank transm end. Just wondered what worked best for everyone. I want to have the harness on the underside as Fieroseverywhere suggested before I stab it on.
