How to Clean Fuel Injectors?

I am facing a little problem with my petrol injectors. The engine can't remain started at idle but with accelerator pressed, its ok. there's some stoppage in injectors.

Can anybody please help me in cleaning the injectors? Can we do it ourselves or have to go to mechanic?

Pls help.

I think u took the car for a wash and water has peeped into some sensor or a plug wire. Please check it first.

The injector manufacturers claim that the fuel injectors are fairly sturdy mechanisms and don't fail very easily. They only get dirty after some time. Proper cleaning can restore their like-new performance. There is no need to replace fuel injectors unless they are actually gone bad. Unfortunately injectors are designed in such a way that they are not very convenient to clean. They are sealed units and can not be opened for cleaning. Ultrasonic cleaning is internationally accepted MOST effective process for cleaning fuel injectors. It is cheap and comprehensive solution for the problem. Fuel additives do not remove the debris completely from the injectors. In fact they can cause harm to our vehicles if not used in line with the standard operational procedure.

When we pour such compositions to our fuel tank, their first action is to dissolve hydrocarbon scaling from the fuel tank. All the loosen up sediments pollute the strainer attached to the submersed pump and the main fuel filter. Remaining dirt flows inside the engine and so does the gunk cleaned from the injectors. That is the reason, the professional mechanics and auto websites recommend change of engine oil and filters after usage of fuel additives. I represent FI-Tech which takes pride to announce ultrasonic fuel injector cleaning service for the first time in Pakistan.
