Hi there. A friend of mine and I were discussing this morning, when and what with to clean fuel injector/primer nozzles on our Lycoming engines. Specifically what cleaning fluid, varsol or acetone? Whether to soak them for a period of time in the solution, then use a sonic cleaner or an old tooth brush? And how often should the injectors be cleaned and how do you determine when the injectors/nozzles need to be cleaned? I understand that fuel injector nozzles are different that primer nozzles on a normally aspirated engine, but would the cleaning procedures be the same?
