Spray-Type Cleaner?!
I am replacing my fuel injectors today. I got everything out and I'm almost ready to put the new injectors in. My Haynes manual says that I should clean the fuel rail with a "Spray-Type Cleaner before putting everything back together" Any recommendations? I'm heading to the auto parts store at about 5 today to pick up my gasket set and then I'm going to put it all back together.
Thanx in advance!!

I use brake parts cleaner as it leaves no residue and takes care of most stains.
Use care to not when cleaning the rail & base injector holes to not get debris into the holes.
Apply a little motor oil to the injector O-rings to minimize the chance of nicking one on assembly.

A little carb cleaner will work too if you have any around. Brake clean is essential in my shop, I buy it by the case!
