SouthBay Fuel Injectors A++

Finally got my car's gas tank back in and have had a little bit of time to let the car run with the new fuel system and injectors (1991 L98), so I figured I'd write a little review.

First off, when I first called SouthBay, I explained that I thought ALL of my fuel injectors were bad/clogged because I had pressure to the rail, voltage and ECM pulses at the injector wiring, but the engine wasn't getting fuel.

I had done some homework on the injectors and knew I wanted to try the Bosch IIIs (22#). The gal I spoke with (can't remember the name, sorry!) was very helpful and helped make sure that I was on the right diagnostic track BEFORE ordering the new injectors. I asked for USPS Express Shipping, and they even dropped the new injectors off at USPS on a Saturday, not to mention they were available by phone (on Saturday) to confirm that they went out. Sure enough the injectors arrived the following Monday and I attempted to install them.

I had a leak at my rail upon initially installing them so I called SouthBay for some "How To". Apparently, the Bosch IIIs must be installed in the manifold first, then go into the rail. I tried it the 2nd time as per their instructions and it worked perfect - No more leaks and the car fired up, first try.

I was very happy with the service, pricing, shipping and overall experience with SouthBay and would definitely do business with them again, for anything fuel injector related.

Thanks!
