Solvent "bath" for secondaries?

I've narrowed down a high rpm hesitation to sticky secondary injectors, and I'm a little bit lazy to take them to a place to get them cleaned (No where nearby will clean them); and I was wondering if anyone has tried letting them soak in a solvent bath for a while and acheived any sort of results. If so, what did you soak them in, and what was the procedure?

not sure if its safe for the o-rings... I'd get them professionally cleaned... 10-15 bucks per injector, and they even get fancy flow testing and sonic cleaning.... don't half-*** it, do it right or don't do it at all

Yes, and just get all 4 done while you're at it. It might make a noticeable difference, and peace of mind is a good thing.
