Aftermarket vs Remanufactured fuel linjector?which is better? Sign In

Hi ,
I have 1993 infiniti G20 with 215,000 miles. I am going to buy a fuel injector online, which one is better to buy ? the New aftermarket or Original used remanufactured?
I am worry about aftermarket part not fitting perfectly and having a fuel leak problem later.
I would like to hear your thoughts please

Thanks
Alex

Buy them in a set and replace them all. If you only do one and you have 215K miles on the old ones, the flow rates are going to be different.


I can't tell you the best way to go when buying injectors. One thing about reman injectors is they can only do so much, such as : sonic cleaning, checking coil condition, replacing screens, and flow testing them. If you go the reman route, make sure it has a good warranty.

New would be ideal if you can afford it.

Another thing on those Nissans with side feed injectors is to make sure that you don't have any leaks when you put it all back together. I suggest you either connect a fuel pressure gauge up or pressurize the fuel rail and watch for leaks before you bolt the rail down and crank on your engine. If you have a bottom injector o ring leak, it will fill up the cylinder with gas and you'll end up hydro locking and possibly bending a rod.





Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.
