Greetings!

Now that I have all my new fuel lines in place on my '76, I find I have two leaking injectors. Of course they are the infamous green top 2.0 injectors that seem to be in short supply for anything resembling a reasonable price.

With that, has anyone had experience with the rebuilt injectors listed on the Automotion site, or anywhere else for that matter?

I have a WTB in the classifieds to see what may turn up, but would appreciate any other suggestions.

Thanks

Tom

I have ordered several things from Automotion. Never had a problem with them until I ordered some rebuilt injectors. When they arrived, they were someone's cores and not rebuilt injectors! I assume what happen was when someone send in their cores, they were placed in restock because they used the same box that the rebuilt injectors came in. Someone did not open the box to see if they were rebuilt injectors or cores. Anyway, I contacted Automotion and they said someone will contact me. They never called back. After several calls, I finally got them to take back the cores. I told them not to send me their rebuilts. I sent my injectors to Witchhunter and they rebuilt them for half of what Automotion charged. I did not get a credit until I had to call several times too!

Hopefully this was an aberration because I never had a problem with Automotion before. I will order from them again but not injectors.

Jawja,

Did Witchhunter actually rebuild them or just clean and test them? Were the ones you sent leakers? That is my issue.

Also, what was their turn around time?

Thanks

Tom
