I'm a newbie myself. I just ordered 16 rebuilt FIC injectors for a customers 1990 zr1. They said nothing about the primary or secondaries being different, and now I'm hoping they're sending me the right ones! I've heard nothing but good things about their customer service and honoring warranties etc etc... fuelinjectorconnection.com

I've seen others have good experience with them, anyone know if this is something to worry about?


Thanks

These are the ones I would use if I were going to buy FIC injectors for my 90. I perhaps would give thought to the rebuilt FIC's if I wanted to save 1/2 the cash.

Kevin, please don't take my post as a knock on the rebuilt FIC's as it's not. I have to do my work Al Fresco. It's not worth it to me to spend less and have the chance I'll have to do the job over. I know that there is a chance that any part can be bad out of the box, new or rebuilt. I based my logic on the fact that the FIC rebuilds have had the odd leaker, also I can't remember any one posting about getting bad new injectors right out of the box.....it's more a decision of what circumstances I have to deal with if I want to do real work on my car.

I think i'm going with FIC and I'm torn between new and rebuilts. the extra $300 in my pocket would be nice but so would not having to rip apart my plenum again because they leak.

Tom, allow me to be the first that posted about bad ""new injectors out of the box. I installed the rebuilt ones from FIC and they were bad right away. We also had problems with a rebuilt set in Jims 93. I will give credit to FIC for their outstanding customer service because they overnighted me 2 sets of the new stainless ones. Once we installed the two new sets, we were back on track, but that was 4 injector jobs in 2 days. The extra money for the new SS ones are worth it....
