3.2 fuel injector alternative

My #5 injector keeps getting stuck if I don't drive the car for longer than a week. I've been using a 9 volt battery to free it up. The injector was already serviced but I presume the spring, coil and magnet will eventually wear out and these parts are not serviceable.

I've got a WTB in the classifieds but was wondering if anyone tried these from our host? $36 seems like a bargain.

I put two GB refurbished injectors in my car about 5 years ago. They seem to work just fine; I have no issues with them.

I originally sent all six to Mr. Injector for cleaning. Four came back working to factory spec, while the other two were shot. The two GB's replaced them. I think I paid about $36 each from a vendor on Amazon.

I don't think that's my problem. I did have all the injectors serviced, which is really just cleaning them. There is no way to service the internals as the injectors can not be disassembled.

I agree. Bill at mr injector does a great job but the oem ones get old and stop working eventually.

Anyone try these at CarParts.com? Pelican currently offers no replacements.
