At your local Pepboys, Autozone, or Advanced Auto...I bought my GP Sorenson rebuild kit at Advanced and it was cheap and good.

Ok, I got a kit from pepboys and the whole thing is taken apart. Is there any way that I can clean my injectors. I am going to use acetone to clean everything, but I don't know if that will messup the injectors.

Come one guys I don't want to mess anything up inside of the injectors if acetone will do that.

I would just leave the injectors alone for now. The only real way to clean them, that I know of, is to send them to a specialty shop and have them run through an injector cleaner (this is NOT the injector cleaner you pour in your gas tank). But, I'm no expert on this sort of thing.

Re: Throttle Body rebuld kit

How much trouble is it to do a rebuild on a tbi? My TBI could probably use it, plus my gas pedal does stick sometimes.
