I second the idea of using witchhunter. I just got them to do a set of
Eurovan injectors for me and also some Vanagon injectors. I am on the
east coast and yet they were done and back here very quickly. I haven't
had a chance to use the injectors yet but they do come with a nice graph
showing before and after flows. One was completely plugged!
