Anyone have experience with these injectors? I have them fitted to my recently acquired 73 1.7 with standard Djet.
My car is currently running very rich / flooding and the injectors are heading to a local specialist for testing as we suspect one of them is sticking. The alternative is they are the wrong spec for the car. Anyone else run them? https://www.fiveomotorsport.com/hose-type-e...ro-asian-sport/ They are the 380cc type. Thanks, Chris  |

Nice you figured out what they are. That is almost 100cc too much for a 1.7.

I believe that green top injectors are for the 1.8liter engines. The yellow top ones are for the 1.7 liter engines.

Thanks, Chris Green 2.0, yellow 1.7? Replacement , I put these in my 2.0 while the Bosch we're sent out for service. Fj67 worked well. No issues. Add the seal kit. Maybe check the FJ114? 2.0 standard FJ67 https://www.rockauto.com/en/parts/standard+...l+injector,6224 1.7 standard ( FJ114. 1.7) https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/porsche...l+injector,6224 |

I have been using those Rock Auto sourced FJ114 fuel injectors on my 1.7 Liter for several years and am very happy with them.

I did see in correspondence from the PO that the supplier claimed they were compatible with a 914 1.7 Djet. I was hoping maybe that one or more of the injectors were either sticky or leaky but I guess what you're suggesting is they're not compatible at all. |

No, they are compatible--they spray a metered amount of fuel just fine.
It's just that it's the wrong amount for a 1.7 engine. They can probably be made to inject the right amount for a 1.7, but it will require work to the rest of the FI. It's a fine difference between "compatible" and "correct", but it's there. Especially if you are selling the parts. --DD |

I would need to order replacement injectors from the US so that would take a while so if tweaking is relatively straightforward that would be an option for sure. What is the correct metered about a 1.7 injector should deliver? |

Dave,
I am pumping up my 1.7 to a 1911 in my rebuild. Would the 2.0 injector work in that situation... its closer to 2 liter, but still running off the 1.7 brain and other parts. I am afraid the 1.7 injectors will run lean. Any info would be great. Thanks. QUOTE(Dave_Darling @ Sep 3 2021, 12:23 PM) No, they are compatible--they spray a metered amount of fuel just fine.
