as above really, mate of mine has had running issues with his car and has narrowed it down to the injectors playing up/not working correctly. so he is after somewere that can clean and test them, ideally around the b'mth southampton area.
At £60 each and having 8 its not quite as simple as getting new ones!

Dude that's stupid pricing. I got mine done at COST price through a guy on the volvo forums. He does a full write up, before and after pictures of the flow rates and washed them BOTH ways. A lot, if not the majority don't seem to do this. The bloke also does high temp testing and balancing if needed (additional cost), but this only applies to engines which misfire when warmed up.

He did my 5 for £50, had a 3 day turn around, fantastic communication and and excellent write up. Interested?

Sounds like the guy I used when the injectors on my boat were blocked with water. He did a full report and provided flow graphs etc. Mine were less than half the specified flow rate at the start, after cleaning they were back to as new spec.

He's based in Wiltshire, around Devizes way I think. He advertises on eBay, you just post him your injectors, he cleans and services them and posts them back. It was £10 an injector.

New ones for my boat were £200 each!!!!!!

Might be a bit far out but Panda in Fareham were great when we needed the van injectors done. They tested them all through first, cleaned and sorted them out, then re-tested them all for about £80.

Station Garage at Park Gate do them, they have an ASNU machine, right next to Swannwick railway station. They did a set for me recently, good service, about £15 each for checking, 24hrs ultrasonic bath, new seals, filter baskets and pintle caps.
