cleaning fuel injectors

I will be rebuilding my 550cc fuel injectors, but I need to clean them first. I've read that soaking them in carb cleaner overnight works.

Any recommendations on what I should soak them in? Brand names are fine, or something besides carb cleaner.

You need to send them out to be professionally cleaned. They'll use ultrasonics to break up anything stuck inside. http://www.witchhunter.com/
