Fuel injector advice

its late and im tired but since my car still isn't running i managed to save about $300 bucks. now I am begining to think what should i spend it on... since i have noted I have flooded my car more than a few times over a period of a months and i've had fuel injectors in my car of unknown cond. Would it be a good Idea to send them off to RcCengineering for cleaning...? im begining to think its a good idea since i am dailying this car.. what ya'll think.. I thought i'd ask..

oh by the way my FC has been down for a month iono why but it just cranks acts like its flooded but it doesn't turn over fast... I have air and spark and no error codes it werid.

There are many local shops which will clean your injectors with usually a day turnaround. Just check the Yellow Pages.

Or, save more then $300 and do a proper full tuneup.

Regarding the slow cranking, if the car has sat a month, the battery is probably dead.

Send injectors out and have them cleaned. Then buy new orings that seat the injectors. You can order them from your local mazda dealership. When using the new orings apply a small amount of vasoline. Do the ATF trick ( u can use oil as well) Charge the battery and also have jumpercables attached with another car running. This helps. Start/drive/enjoy

Your vehicle will now run properly.

You might want to do a compression check aswell.
