Soak em in sea foam but also open em up with a 9 volt battery. One wire on one end the other wire on the other side.

Gotta watch those Neon injectors. I think I see one set of the actual "upgrade" injectors in one of every 15 Neons I look in. The rest have an injector that looks and mounts the same but which are about a half inch shorter or that have a different electrical plug.
