Does anyone have one of these?

If so, how well do they work?

What limitation do they have, other than size.

Thanks,

Chip

The $6999.99 one should be big enough for just about anything you might have occasion to clean! Oh, this is the CSOB list, I forgot. The next one down is pretty dam* small. Prolly works OK, though. The Cap'n

I bought the cheasy little one... and returned it a few days later. The $180 unit might work OK, but I have my doubts. I haven't tried ti though, so I can't say for certain.

get a 1 gallon pail of Chemtool carb cleaner. Drop in your parts, tie a rope to the handle and the other side to the bumper. Drive around for about 30 minutes and Wala!

i have a Mars|Staedler that's about 4" dia x 4" deep (the stainless chamber). i use it to clean technical pens and airbrushes, mostly.

i have used it to clean fuel injectors.

IIRC it was a demo unit (lightly used) for which i paid about $100 20 years ago. (where's that inflation calculator?) but it is *the* tool for cleaning acrylic paint from airbrushes and hardened India ink from technical pens.

i haven't cleaned EFI injectors so i can't comment on that. but i've done CIS and i'd do my MFI injectors before too long...
