    Pulling the baskets first and back flushing the injectors is the best solution to getting them completely clean, throughout the injector. Bravo to you, nearly every one of the other videos I’ve seen has NOT mentioned the filter screen basket removal prior to the back flush. Absolutely a must before you start running them in the normal upright position. They’re still dirty if you didn’t!!!

    didn't even realize you could rebuild and clean an injector. that machine would pay for itself after using it one time with the price of injectors. great video

      Yeah it’s pretty awesome! Especially as you do more with fuel injection! Thank you 🙏

    Cool. I just bought one of these machines off ebay and figured their instructions would be rubbish. Nice tutorial!

    Its a good idea to flow test with the new baskets installed, that way if the baskets are incorrect it will show up in the flow test [Happens on KTM motorbikes, where a incorrect basket will cut the fuel flow in half and have you chasing your tail trying to figure out why the bike runs rough].

    Don't know if you checked, I went back to 2:11- 2:12 there is a view of the basket end of the injector and it looks flush. Cool video, definitely shows how important injector maintenance is and that it is relatively easy to clean and change a few parts. Maybe you could put a vid together showing how to clean them with basic off the shelf and garage items.

    Самое интересное впереди когда начнется сыпаться передняя панель управления, а сыпаться она будет, по этому Лаунч ими торгует отдельно а на этот аппарат нигде нет, я уже китайцам забил почту письмами, не продают отдельно и всё. Лучше бы добавил денег и купил Лаунч но жадность победила, это я про себя.
    The most interesting thing is ahead when the front control panel starts to crumble, and it will crumble, so Launch sells them separately and this device is nowhere to be found, I already filled the Chinese mail with letters, they don’t sell them separately and that’s it. It would be better if I added money and bought Launch, but greed won, that's me to myself.

    Hey bro what's your experience with the mineral spirits so far ? The dealer told me to use industrial alcohol because of mineral spirits could damage the internal seals / o rings inside of the machine. What do you think?

      Denatured alcohol works great. Mineral spirits are corrosive to the orings and seals of the machine. N-heptane is what professional injection cleaning machines use to get accurate flow rates, but I am not sure if the orings and seals can handle that either.

    Hi - Does this machine still work well ? Do you think its worth investing more to get a better quality machine ?

    • @DickHamm
      @DickHamm  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Just depends on what you are doing with it. Still works great for me. Overall for a hobbyist looking to make sure the injectors are working and flowing somewhat the same I think it is great
