Warning: don't sink $600 into that fancy ultrasonic cleaner for small parts
Bought a top of the line Branson ultrasonic cleaner for cleaning fuel nozzles and injectors but it just vibrates grime loose slower than soaking in a coffee can of carb cleaner for half the price, has anyone else found a cheap alternative that actually works?

Saw a thread on a diesel forum where a guy swore by using a slow cooker with some simple green and water for cleaning injectors. Said he let them simmer for a few hours and they came out spotless. Makes you wonder how much of that ultrasonic nonsense is just marketing hype when a $20 thrift store slow cooker does the same job. Maybe the high frequency stuff works better for jewelry or small electronics but for greasy fuel parts it seems like heat and agitation is what actually breaks down the carbon. Would bet the Branson just looks fancier on the shelf.
