Injector O-rings

[fishEH]

Anybody know of a generic cross reference for D1 injector O-rings? A part number would be awesome....

Also, I've got some Ford 19# injectors and another set of Volvo injectors. Should I use these or just clean the stock ones? The truck runs fine, but I'll have the intake off for the valley pan gasket so I figure I would clean up and address as many things as possible.

I don't know the part # but if you take one of them down to autozone they sell sets of them for cheap.

I found injector o-rings for $1.65 each at Rock Auto. They list it as "includes top and bottom seals o-ring kit."

I got one of those injector rebuild kits off of eBay for around $25. It came with all the o-rings, micro filters, and the little plastic end pieces, took about an hour to rebuild all 8 and I gotta say there was a huge improvement. Cured my misfires and P0174/71 codes.

I got mine from PT.

Thanks! Sounds like the Gen-u-wine deal are cheap enough and readily available.


Any thoughts on Ford vs Volvo vs Stock injectors? Will I actually notice any difference with one set vs another?I'll be cleaning/rebuilding whatever set I go with.

The Volvos are cheaper (or were when I purchased), have correct notches, and better atomization due to being newer gen design. That said, I only noticed a slight difference.

x2, and available already rebuilt on ebay for around $120. I've used them in 2 engines and they work great. Will be using them in a 3rd once I get around to working on that one. I can't say I noticed any performance increase/decrease but it idles and runs smooth.

I just did the Volvo injectors and they were easy and everything fit proper. I noticed a small increase in performance but I think it was just due to the old injectors being crap.
