Hello All,
I need to replace a couple of leaky injectors on my '74 1.8 and wondered if anyone has used an aftermarket injector with success/failure or heard of anyone who has. A knowledgeable friend recommended that I stick with NOS Bosch. Stoddard sells injectors and the salesperson told me that their part number supercedes the Bosch number, but I am unsure about that and they were unable to tell me who manufacturers them or the country of origin. Any thoughts? Thanks, James |

Interesting. @JeffBowlsby spreadsheet is the best piece of info google could show me. It really is amazing how often google will recommend something on this site even if you’re just searching part numbers. Anyway, Jeff showed them both flowing the same. I suppose spending the very nominal fee for flow testing answers all questions.
Back to the topic at hand, @JamesJ you know there is a pretty good chance you can fix your current injectors. When I lived in Houston, https://www.injectorrx.com/ was the place to go. But there are many shops that can service your old injectors to get them functioning again. Plus seals and hoses are a super easy DIY on this car. Van |
