Can anybody help me about how to clean the Fuel Injectors? Can it be done by DIY or at authorised workshop only?
Pls help. |

What about using those injector cleaning fluids? They usually work.
Although I don't see why you should need to clean them in a car that can't have more than 15000 miles... |

well you could always pull them out and soak them in alcohol to knock anything off that may have stuck to them.

The only way to really clean an injector is to pull it out and clean it in an ultrasonic bath. While its out its often possible to have it flow tested at the same time. Not really something for a DIY.
Injector cleaning fluids are pretty much a waste of money and will not do a proper job. Not sure why you'd bother on a Yaris unless you're having problems. |
