    Best Method of cleaning the fins on injector pintles?

    Pulled my injectors and I need to know the best method for cleaning the carbon/grease embedded between the little fins on the pintles.

    Any ideas/ suggestions? Ive used Purple Power but the crevices are tiny and hard to get anything into them with enough force to get it out. Im afraid of breaking the entire pintle off if too much force is used.

    Thanks...
