dealer service - injectors question

[Z51JEFF]

I wouldn't think the OEM injectors would be available and why would anybody use them anyway?

[Marc Haibeck]

The GM Service Part injectors that were manufactured after about 1999 are the new design that is compatible with ethanol. A new part number was not issued for the improved '90 to '92 injectors. The improved injectors can be identified by the color of the base. If the lower half is silver, like the production '90 to '92 injectors, they are the old design and are not compatible with ethanol. If the lower half has a green anodized tint like the '93 to '95 production injectors they are compatible with ethanol.

They retail for over $100 each!

The Accel #150821 from Summit Racing work very well, after you grind off the little plastic index tab on (I forget which) either the primary or secondary injector (5 minutes tops with a Dremel for eight injectors).

Good idea to get new "O-ring" gaskets from Jerry's Gaskets for a 1990 MY, as the PRIMARY injector is sealed at the top end of the injector barrel. Jerry can supply you with the new plenum gaskets (among other things) too.

I got my replacements from fuel injector connection. I believe there's discount and I know there's a life time warranty

i have FIC injectors for my 90. i have david fulcher (sp?) currently looking over my car as I plan to do some tracking with it this spring.

the reason why i asked is that there is a ZR1 on BaT currently being auctioned off. owner mentions that it was serviced (including injectors) some time back.

it would NOT have surprised me that the dealer would put the same garbage INJECTORS back in.

Bring a Trailer... BaT auction site
Lotsa comments on ZR-1s.
Most are positive, 😀, but you can tell many
of them don't know much about ZR-1s.
Car should sell well there? Looks like a nice car.

BAT brings some strong money for some cars. interaction with the seller brings a bit of confidence. scammers get the boot.

my partner and I bought an e30 M3 off the site from a new member here.

i'm not to fond of the buyers premium so you have to bid accordingly

I was the seller of the E30 M3 on BAT that Henry bought and I was very satisfied with the BAT auction process. I didn't know what the car was worth at the time and BAT Auction looked like the most trusted, least risky way to offer it for sale. I was very pleased with the results and hope Henry was, too. Had to sell the M3 to make room for my newly acquired ZR-1. There are many interesting and positive comments about the ZR-1 on BAT Auction now and this is the first ZR-1 I have seen on that site. To see it go to bringatrailer.com and click on the picture of the white C4.

Not a whole lot of "action" on it in the last
day or so. Two days left.
Someone may get a good deal?

most of the action takes place in the final minutes.....

there is a 1 minute (?) cooling period so things can heat up well beyond the auction end time.
