easiest way is to run a can of injector cleaner or some stuff called 44k BY bg products = works well... do you have a problem that makes you think you need your injectors cleaned???

I use a small 9 volt battery with 2 leads on it to test and open injectors. Connectwires to the 9 volt battery and on a removed injector touch the wires to the connector on it and see if it clicks, that is the injector opening. I have opened them with a battery, sprayed them real good withcarb cleaner and have had pretty good results cleaning them up a bit.

why not? 30# injectors are the largest you can go before you start having fuel flow and idle problems

Unless you get a matching MAF, it's not gonna run right.

Note his sig " 89 5.0 LX vert... "Allstock" "

30lbers on a stock car though is pretty far out there, overkill for sure unless theres some future mods on the way.

Thank you for all your input, and no there not in a stock engine, there out thats why I was aksing howto check them, and I do have a MAF sensor for 30# and I got gt40 heads, a e-cam, and cobra intake. was going to put it all together all at once!!! just need to finish porting the heads and intake and buy a throttle body...
