Can injectors go bad or get clogged

[TRUE BLUE SINCE 1980]

A buddy of mine just called me (he is the free snowmobile mechanic in this area) He is working on a 06 Apex that sat for 2 seasons. It cranks over, the fuel pump is pumping and it will run if he sprays it.
Can the injectors get clogged and is there a way to open them up. Thanks in advance for any info.... He has it on the lift!

You can pull them and clean them, have u checked the voltage on the battery

No Codes, but the battery was dead , he has it on a charger.

Clean them then run a decent amount of Sea Foam through the tank, and continue to add some (100-200ml) for every tank after that.

I exclusively use Sea Foam and nothing else as it is also a fuel Stabilizer, and no carb related issues in years.

Spray some WD 40 on the injectors and let them sit. Had a Nytro do the same thing last fall. They freed up after a few hours.

Update;
Got the sled running .....ripped it across the yard today.
It must have been a combination of old gas,
dead battery and
THE HANDFULLS OF MOUSE BEDDING that flew out the exhaust tips.

A little tip for the mice problem guys seem to have.... When upon storing for the summer or even if the sled sits for a little time is to put steel wool pads into the exhaust tips or muffler can . not stuffed way in but just in the opening this will stop the issue. They will even try a piece which will later kill them off. I also did this on all my 2 strokes at the air box opening too... never a problem after.
