Re: 1982 Jetta 1.6 NA

It seems that my injectors are not sealing well.  After a minute or two bub=
bles come up around the injectors.  This is the same car that had the PO's =
heat shield stuck in  there for a good 10 days (out due to the sears hook a=
nd pick set and a lot of P'Blaster).  I've pulled everything, cleaned it ou=
t fairly well, then put in new heat shields (twice).  Any suggestions on ho=
w to clean out the injector holes?  I was thinking a brass pipe cleaner bru=
sh attached to a drill, but I'm a bit nervous about damaging it worse.  How=
 about a sealing compound?  Anyone had a similar problem?  The car runs *gr=
eat*  - I've got slightly low compression in the leaky cylinders, but with =
new glow plugs it starts better than the pickup.


Thanks,
