    Central Valve Bodies vs 800700tran.com

    Fuel injector cleaning and a few other things

    I have a 2000 Ex EB with 120k+ miles. I'm going to assume that almost everything on it is original because I got it when it was already 4 yrs old. I KNOW the injectors need cleaning and there are some shops in my area (ASE certified) that are doing internal injection cleaning (hooking the fuel...
