In case you didn't know, injector rebuilding really involves cleaning &
testing. They aren't rebuildable.

Subject: Re: '91 vanagon GL fuel injector flush/clean?

I too have a '91 Carat - and after my experience with the injectors in my
'88 GL, the Carat is having it's injectors rebuilt. They are, after all,
some 19 years old, and probably have never been rebuilt. The '88GL now runs
so sweet on those newly rebuilt injectors. I sent mine out to Cruzin
Performance. Outstanding job!
