Price Check on fully refurbished Bosch 158 injectors
I am cleaning out my garage and have several sort of oddball parts that have been culled from various cars over the years. My last 3.2 Carrera that I had for 7 years was a joy, and at 58k miles, I decided to have my original Bosch injectors 'rebuilt' which is a broad term for heat/sonic cleaning, spray pattern testing, new o-rings, etc.
During this process, I installed Sal Carceller's revised injectors and tune. Thus, when I received my rebuilt/cleaned injectors back, I simply didn't need them. So, I have a complete set of 100% fresh, factory correct, never installed post-rebuild injectors. They've been stored inside, fully sealed and protected. I have absolutely no idea what to ask for these in classifieds as I can't find any available. Can anyone give me a range? Many thanks in advance

150-200 is probably a fair price. They are just refurbished used injectors. The longer they sit on the shelf, the more chance of them getting stuck again.

Thanks @john walker's workshop. They are 'just used refurbished injectors' that are not available any more. This leaves only moderately applicable newer injectors to use. The new ones I've come across (in the UK, not US) are $330 each, so it seems the your given estimate may be on the low side.
Also, these were lightly oil coated, sealed in bubble wrap, inside a box in a conditioned space, not seeing the light of day. These may be better preserved than just sitting unprotected on a garage shelf.

Lots of things are not available, but there are lots available used that can be used as is or sent out to be refurbished.

Can also get brand new US made direct replacements for under $80 each.
https://www.fiveomotorsport.com/makes/buick/fiveomotorsport-255cc-24lbs-porsche-bmw-original-equipment/ The 158 injector is common. It was used on a lot of different widely produced cars (BMWs etc). I agree with John’s range, but I can’t imagine anyone paying more than $300 for “rebuilt” injectors. (They aren’t really fully rebuilt, like, all the electrical inside are untouched, used 35 year old stuff. Brand new is more desirable). Last edited by McLovin; 09-28-2021 at 11:16 AM.. |
