Injector Problem need help!!!!!!

[jsinga]

Ford doesn't make the injectors. Who do they buy them from?

The factory fuel pressure regulator works fine and will keep those injectors running well.

I concur. Like so many parts we can throw at these cars. I installed an AFPR on my 406, then set the factory specified pressure after I learned more and was tuning the car. Wasted: $90.

I also run, upon recommendation and at a nice discount, the Ford Motorsport injectors, with great results.

I bought a set of "pink top" injectors off eBay, brand new, for $200. Aren't the Accel's more expensive?

Brand new injectors do not flow the same amount of fuel. They do not draw the same amount of current. This makes for cars running rough or just plain not running very well.

Nascar teams will buy 1,000 injectors at a time. They will test the flow and the current draw. They will put them into batches of 8. By doing this, they will sometimes find another 20 to 30 horsepower out of the same engine!

I recommend talking to Paul at Auto Clinic of Rockford, IL. He can sell you a set of completely reconditioned injectors for much, much less than a new set. He can sell you a better injector than what was originally installed in your Vette.

After you install his set of injectors, you will be amazed at how nice your Vette will idle and how much power you will have.

New injectors carry a lot of marketing. Totally unnecessary. What you want are injectors that are balanced with each other.

P.S. Tell him Gregory from Illinois told you to call him!

Hey Greg...can you include the particulars on how to get in touch with Paul at the Autoclinic? I'm in the market for rplcmt injectors and what you had to say makes a lot of sense. Will this guy ship? Thanks....Rufus

The latest car I have worked on was a 1995 Cadillac Sedan Deville with over 85,000 miles. I replaced his original injectors (car was barely running and when running, was running like s***) with ones from Paul. My customer (second owner of the Caddy) says the car runs so quiet and smooth that he will not sell the car for a very long time. Paul sold me the later model injectors that will not ever plug up. Now, these injectors are not painted any fancy schmancy color, but they certainly work better than anything else I have ever seen. This engine (4.9L V-8) runs better than any other 4.9 out there. And I have had experience with tons of 4.1 - 4.5 - 4.9 engines!
