Unpopular opinion: Checking injector spray with a clear bottle beats guessing every time.

My buddy's trick with a soda bottle let me see the pattern and fix a misfire right away.

Hey, solid trick for a basic check. But that clear bottle only shows you if fuel is squirting out, not the actual spray pattern a good injector should have. You need a real pattern tester to see if it's a fine, even mist or a lousy stream. Otherwise you might miss a clogged or dribbling injector that still puts out some fuel. It's a great first step, just not the whole picture.
