It is common that old injectors get clogged up and deliver poor spray patterns. Your injectors probably need to be cleaned. Poor boy method is to run 12 oz of Berryman s B12 or Techron through your engine to clean them. You need about 5 gallons of fuel in your tank to get fast results. A more professional approach is to remove them and have the serviced at a Fuel Injector rebuilders shop. The rebuild process is mostly just cleaning them in an ultrasonic cleaner with high powered cleaner. If you try to clean them yourself, do not submerge them in any cleaner solutions.
