Annoyingly, this was the reply to my atttempt to buy one from ebay seller "cartols2019": Because of the COVID-19 epidemic, our shipping agent don't send the parcel to your address .We cann't ship it to you now. We are willing to refund you in full. Do you agree? Waiting your replay. Very sorry for the inconveniences we caused to you. Hope to get your understanding. have a nice day : ) Thanks, I had a message like that for something else which I can't remember. I think it just means they're sold out for now.

Exactly this they've advertised things they don't have to prevent other sellers getting the sale in the hope they will be able to string you on until they have one again. Sadly it is a common tactic.

I bought mine from autool_official_store on eBay, but they've gone up by £35 since I bought it...

Small update - I gave the Jag injectors a 48 or so hour soak in the cleaner and about half an hour more of ultrasonic cleaning. Learnt one lesson - the injector cleaner swells the sealing o-rings, so remove them before any prolonged soaking!
Unfortunately it's made no difference at all to the spray patterns, or the flow rates. I think unsticking them and showing their spray pattern and flow is about as far as this machine is going to go.
I've also had the injectors off the V6 in the mx5 and tested them. First off, they're a different injector to my new spares! They aren't at all sticky, don't leak, and all 6 are pretty much perfectly balanced. The spray pattern is about 6 jets rather than misting, and cleaning made no difference at all. Looks like injectors aren't my issue after all.
I left the tester full of injector cleaner over Christmas, and the measuring tubes aren't emptying quite as freely as they were - I suspect the injector cleaner has swollen an o-ring or two in the cleaner. Oops! I've emptied it now.

I've wondered about flushing them backwards, with the filter removed you have a pretty free path for any debris to leave compared with trying to squeeze it through the nozzle.
