I recently had some problems with my Dodge Custom Van, and the mechanic
suggested a cleanout of the injectors, inner plenum, etc.

I was a little sceptical at first, but let him run with it.

He has an optical fiber tool that he can use to see inside the induction 
system and
can even get a look at the backside of the valves.  Mine were filthy,
heavy 
buildup
of unburned gasoline remnants.

In this case, the treatment completely solved the idle and dying problems.
