Hi all!

Been having a no-start issue, and had my car taken to a well-regarded 914 shop. They informed us that their policy is that they only use brand-new parts that they source themselves.

Outside of the no-start issue, it appears that the NOS fuel injectors that we had put on it are leaking, alongside the short hoses leading to them. We just replaced the whole fuel system with Tangerine Racing stainless lines with new rubber.

They said that the tiny rubber lines are backordered, and the injectors run about $500 per. I'm confused, as I see hundreds of listings for part FJ67 for $120 online. Am I missing something here?

Let me know if i am overreacting.

Find a new shop that isn’t intent on scamming you.

PS - send your injectors to Mr Injector. He will test & clean them. If they are truly leaking and aren’t worth cleaning he will not charge for them.
