I bought 4 "good used 2.0 injectors" from a member on this site last winter. Yesterday I went to test them before installing them and found 1 out of 4 worked. The others are seized tight.
I think I will buy new ones and saw these on EBay. 912 2.0 and these 1.8 or 2.0 ??? or these AA Pythons Have any of you bought these and tried them? Where would you recommend?? |

Injectors do that sometimes.
Before you get mad...or spendalot of money.. Buy a quart of TEKTRON FI cleaner...nothing else. Dunk all four injectors for a few days. How are you testing them? What voltage? RIch |

Then you need fuel to check and see if they spray and/or leak. Rich |

Rich Let me see if I got this right: Hook up the FI directly to the FP, then used a 9volt battery to trigger the FI. Will the FI spray s long as the battery is attached ? |

Will the FI spray s long as the battery is attached ? its an electrical coil...or elec magnet. Apply voltage..it opens or closes...depending. So, you can open them and blast cleaning fluid through them to fix the spray pattern...again..I am not certain about the voltage...I do know its less than 12VDC and fromwhat I recall 12vdc will harm the injector. Start with an AA battery...1.5 volts...work your way up one battery at a time. Rich |
