    State of shock.

    I found an injector stuck open in my new '91 and went to the parts store to find a new one. They said, "no problem, that will be $220.00."
    After getting up off the floor I decided to come here and ask, Anyone know a place to find affordable injectors?
    It is a sad state of affairs that the boneyards are crushing eveything here in Michigan due to the high price of steel.

    have the set sent out and cleaned/ballanced, that should solve your sticking valve issue (also a quick rap with a screwdriver sometimes unsticks an injector).
    Trees aren't kind to me...

    currently: 2 88Ls (Scrappy and Jersey), 88LX, 90L(Pepe), 91L, 91GL (Skippy) 93 GL Sport (the Mighty Favakk), 94 (Bruce) & 95 Aspire SEs, 97 Aspire (The Joker),
    94 Justy 4WD, 87 Fiero GT, plus 2 parts cars. That's my fleet.

      1988 323 GT - B6T Powered

      If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

                  Send them to me and I can sonic clean them
                  If a hammer doesn't fix it you have an electrical problem

                    Thanks for the sonic clean offer! I need to get down to NC to see relatives.
                    Would that fix one that is stuck open?
                    After all this good input I dug around and found a Michigan company that rebuilds/rejuvenate/whatever injectors.
                    Still researching.
                    I had better get the red one one the road, the green one is asking for a vacation.

                        Good possibility. We'd have to clean it and cycle it to be sure. If not, I have a few extras lying around so I'm sure we could find you a good replacement.
