Do you think that I should try to clean them in an ultrasonic cleaner?


If so, what liquid should I use for cleaning?


Carb cleaner... nasty stuff, keep it off your skin,


Yea, when I bought my POS honda, it ran a bit rough, I took out the
injectors, soaked them in a bath of carb cleaner over night, reinstalled
with new seals and it ran 100% better. I bought one of those pails of
cleaner with a basket in it like this http://tinyurl.com/6s3hdqv but I
don't remember it being that much. It was 5+ years ago


You're lucky they were steel and it was the "environmental" bull****.
If you had soaked aluminum carb parts in a REAL (Chem Dip) dip tank
overnight, you'd have come back to a nearly empty basket the next day.

Nasty ****, mon, and exactly what's needed to do the job right and
quickly.
