Default injector cleaning

i recently took the injectors out of my 92 RR 3.9 V8 because i thought they were leaking and when i removed the fuel rail it was full of rust, ive heard that the injectors can be cleaned and reused but how do you get the rust out of them?

Cleaning for carbon build up is one thing but for rust build up, that is another story.
You might make a post of DiscoWeb and ask that question. I think I once saw a post telling where you could send the injectors to have them serviced.
Before you do that, you need to drop the tank and clean it, replace the filter and flush the lines, otherwise it will be right back.
