While I am replacing my HG, blown #6, I decided it to be prudent to go ahead and "rebuild" the injectors. I am looking around to see if anyone can guide me to a decent kit to do so AND just how difficult is it?
The way I figure if I could get the PITA crossover nuts off with out loosing my mind OR breaking them I surely should be able to handle the injectors.
OR should I just leave them alone? I did loosen the fuel rails and I am hoping it did not compromise the already tired yet fully functioning injectors.
Thank you and This site has so far saved my bacon on this HG project!
At least until I can to a 3.4 swap which ain't too soon!

 

I highly recommend just sending the injectors out to www.witchhunter.com and they will test, clean, and rebuild them for $22 per injector plus a bit of shipping.

You may have a company more local to you that provides a similar service.

 

R,
Thank you for the fast reply and the good advice. I had thought about doing just that but being broke as a joke I am looking to either do it myself. Hey, can I get by with just replacing the tiny o rings between the actual injector and the rail? If so I am thinking rockauto.com? Thoughts?
Thanks again.

Yes, at a minimum, I'd replace the O-rings, seals, and insulators i.e. the rubber bits on each injector. As for cleaning the tips, soaking them in carb cleaner might be an option.
