Running a little rich

Hey I will post up pics later but I was wondering if anyone had some advice first. I have a 2003 supra ssv and it seems to be running a bit rich. I pulled off the flame arrestor and it looks like the injectors are spraying good, but it doesn't look like they are misting evenly. You can see where more fuel is building up in places. I will attach a pic of this later. Also, because of the excess fuel, its like the engine is flooded. In order to get it to start, I have to take it out of gear and open it all the way up to clear the excess fuel, then come off the throttle. Are there any quick adjustments I could make or am I going to have to have my injectors taken off and cleaned? Maybe run some injector cleaner through? I am at a loss, so thanks in advance.

Those throttle bodies are super easy to re-build. Way easier than a carburetor. You can get a kit for < $50 and do it in an hour. If you see fuel puddling on the throttle plates then something is indeed wrong in Denmark. Pull the number off the TBI unit and call Summit.

Ok. I am far from a mechanic, but when I looked at those rebuild kits, it looked like a bunch of gaskets and such but nothing really for the actual injectors. Anyone have like a DIY for this? I don't want to order a kit not knowing what I am doing. Thanks in advance
