Been poking around a little bit and it seems 2.0L injectors are in short supply.
AA has them listed as back ordered. A few evilbay'ers seem to have them listed at $330 each which is crazy talk. Any sources or tricks for bringing a dead one back to life? I see rebuild services but that is basically just putting in a new micro-filter, a new pintle cap and an ultrasonic cleaning and flow rate check of working injectors. Are there viable alternates for 2.0L injectors that are available? |

My understanding is that if they are leaking they are junk. Is that correct?
Took a while but I was able to find NOS on Ebay at decent price. Replaced the original hoses with FI hose which local hydraulic shop was able to properly crimp, no worm clamps. |
