Just got my injectors back from Rich.
A pic (or two) is worth a 1000 words.

Nice, I'll be dealing with Rich soon. As asked...did you receive a flow number sheet?

I believe it is stanard practice with Rich to provide data on each injector after service...and one data given is the flow rate. I got this information when he just checked my injectors and found they did not need cleaning. He could have charged me and I would not have known otherwise. He is "da man" on injector service

He did the same for me. Mine were as good as new. He only charged me to check them and ship them.

For those curious, this is what Rich will show you if your injectors are serviced.

Yes, you get a link that you can open and view the results before they are returned--that contains the data Mikey has linked.
Most of mine failed leakdown test and only had fair spray pattern (and looked like crap) now they look like new.

What exactly is involved with freshening up an injector? Is this any better or more cost effective than just purchasing new injectors?

Here is a link to what cleaning involves and the cost: http://www.cruzinperformance.com/fuelinj.html

As far as whether replacing is better, that might be the route to go in some cases.
There are forum members who know all about this and could help you I'm sure. It seems to me that the multec injectors used in some years don't have a very good reputation since they have solenoids that can fail and require replacement--can't be fixed.
The 85-88 vettes used Bosch injectors which are good and IMO are worth keeping.
