Anyone Used WitchHunter Performance to Clean Injectors, Thoughts?
3.4L still runs rough every so often, determined it has to be the injector.
My plan is to change the one supposedly bad injector with a brand new genuine Toyota injector, and send the other 5 off to WitchHunter Performance to get cleaned and flow tested. Truck has 219,000 miles on it.
Has anyone done this before, is it worth it? I would just change all 6 with genuine Toyota's, but I can't afford that at this moment.

I've looked at them and they seem legit.
I would first call around and see if a local company can do it.

Always used these guys, and ran there injectors and never failed, always dialed in and tuned well.
Fuel Injector Clinic
But any of the know injector sellers clean them, just make sure they give a flow rating when the clean them.

I've heard lots of good stuff about Witchhunter, never used them though. Check out Accurate Injector Service in Arizona first though, I used them last year and was super happy. Couple posts on it in my thread, starting around post 700: KidV's 1985 4Runner

My brother used them years ago (2008) and got 8 done for $109 + shipping. One injector he sent was bad, and the other seven ran well after the cleaning.
I know that WH expanded in 2010 or 2011 and with such the quality control seems to a have slipped slightly. But it is what you read on the Web, so take such with a grain of salt for YMMV.

I used them several years ago for the 4 in my 22re. Got a report of flow, and they came back super shiny. He told me they were in good shape, just keep the fuel filter changed and I should get another 300k out of them.
I'd send him more without hesitation.

i've used him a few times for my injectors. Wouldn't hesitate to do it again. You get the full spec sheet with before and after results.

I used witchhunter for the injectors in my 22-re. Very pleased. Super detailed work, great communication, and fast turnaround time.
