2.1 DJ injectors

Post by PetenAli »

I am just about to send a set of injectors away for an ASNU treatment so that they will go on the new engine when ever its finished. I need to know whether they are "Top feed rail mounted" (which is what I think they are) or "hose type" (which they may be because they are connected to the rail by short lengths of hose). Better put a picture in although there will be lots on here who know the answer straight away...

Thanks very much, :ok

Fantastic service from HGL in Hull! Posted the injectors at midday on Monday and they have just arrived back 48 hours later fully tested and refurbed with new filter baskets, top hoses, bottom seals and pintle caps. :ok :ok

MM - I will post up some pics later of the refurbed injectors and the spec sheet that they also sent back. Got to go out and do some work now!

Aidan - thanks very much for the advice to go to HGL.

When I had the four from my c.200k mile Saab 900T16 done by 'em a couple of years ago, it was a bit over £50 for the set, including postage. Bargain.

As for that report - one of 'em was flowing 35cc/sec to start with, now 54...? Wow. That was clogged. And with all the others low-mid 40s, way unbalanced. That pot would have been running very lean, so hot. You should notice a heck of a difference in the way it drives. I know I did.

I've been happy with mine since last year much smoother at idle and smoother pick up on petrol, sure I'm usually on lpg but after 9 years the vapouriser needs an overhauls so I'm running fool's gold at the mo and it's good
