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 |

I would put new injectors in the car. Running anything that carries gasoline that is 50 years old is a risk. New injectors, hoses, stainless steel lines, and the proper clamps are cheap insurance against a fire.
As for fire... Been there, done that. Watching your 914 burn is the stuff of nightmares. Just my $.02. Clay |
