By taking them to a professional, where they will be cleaned in an ultrasonic bath and flow tested to check they all have a consistant spray pattern and volume.

You can do a rudimentary job yourself by removing them from the car, and using a AA battery to open and close them- while spraying carb cleaner throgh them backward, forwards, and letting the tips sit in it overnight.
It isn't sonic cleaning, and it isn't perfect, but it works well enough to be noticable. If you have the money (about $25 per injector)- then ablolutely get them professionally cleaned.

I want to clean my fuel injectors too...
i ve heard that we can use a chemical fluid in the fuel tank (i think its called NX...something) and do the the cleaning...Of course its not like the ultra sonic cleaning.
How about that sollution?Is it safe to use such chemicals in my turbo II?Has anyone tried it?
