Right after a lot of soul searching, compression test, coil tests, spark plugs tests, I had the emmissions checked and the advise given was a blocked injector.
A friend of mine has a spare set of 1.6 injectors, my car is a 1.4 whats the chances of them being a straight swop of even working in my 206.
Mine is a 2000 1.4 206 GLX with engine code KFX

Don't know but you could take them out and clean them one by one, and it makes a world of difference.
I wouldn't think there is anything wrong with the pintle valves in them otherwise you would get EML
come-on.

Hi, I thought petrol fuel injectors were a sealed unit and could not be stripped down for cleaning

you don't have to strip the injector in order to clean it.

Just replace it, these commonly die.
