We sell direct replacement injectors. There's only a handful of manufacturers, so don't pay more for a label. We sell all the major brands, plus rebuilt. I'd recommend our rebuilt Bosch.

I installed a set from Injectors Plus on a '90 today....what an improvement. Amazing how bad they can get after many years. Purrs like a kitten again. Great customer service.

Thanks BG, glad to hear the car is running great. That was a tough one huh?

OP, give me a call 201-258-5600. We'll figure out what you need and get them to you ASAP.

Yea, the engine would run bad after 10 minutes, and stall if I tried to accelerate. Checked all the usual easy probabilities, then walked away for a while.Came back and decided to ohms-check the injectors. BINGO!. Two were 7 ohms (#6 and #8), a couple at 11, couple at 12 and the rest were at 16. Cured the rough idle and stalling when hot.Thanks again.

Re: What injectors should I use?

I replaced mine with refurbished units last fall and they made a big difference. I selected Bosch III's and am extremely happy with their performance. I used stock 19# units for my 5.0 TPI car.

There are at least 3 companies posting through this site that sell them at reasonable prices. I see at least one of them has already responded to your posting. Talk to them make the change. Their prices for a set of the rebuilt units were between $150 and $200, significantly better than new with equivalent performance.

The flow balancing makes a huge difference with these cars. No matter what, it will run better, and once you get the TPI apart, it's a sucky job, I'd hate to do it twice.

My 305 91 formula will more than likely need a new set of injectors sooner than later, do you guys offer shipping to Canada, Quebec ?
