I found an affordable set of 8 Ford injectors. These are FoMoCo part #F1TE-D5A.
They are 24 lbs injectors but I am not certain if these will work for my 1997 TJ with a 2.5L?
Please help me out because i cant find whether they will work or not...and i have to decide and let my friend know whether ill take them or not since he does have someone else looking to get them.
HELP a confused fellow jeeper :uhoh

They should. They are 24.25 # per hour at 39 PSI.
Just make sure the connectors are CV-1 Other wise you will need adapters (4) about $8.00 each to make them work.

Where did you locate this info? :bow:
I've been banging my head on the screed :brick: for the last hour unable to find anything on these...
Are they design I/II or III?

I'd have to see them to tell what design they are. All plastic should be III. A fat metal body would be II.
-
But nonetheless, they are not the design I with the single pintle like our stockers?
I just want to make sure that these will be an upgrade over stock...

i'm not sure if they are the ones you want - i found them rated at 24.25lb/hr at 39.15 psi - on your TJ with the 49psi fuel pressure that means they will flow 27.13lb/hr, compare that to the stock rating of 23.2 makes it about 17% more - you will end up with about 11.5AFR at wot which is way too low. but that's just my opinion, you can try but i say they're too big. I also found the bosch equivalent for these (p/n 280 150 947) and they are rated at 25.3lb/hr at 43.5 psi, pretty much same rating as the fomoco one (0.2lb/hr difference at 43.5 psi between the 2), so that leads me to think that the rating is fairly accurate in both cases
-
Yea I was just looking at that too...i was just gonna post my findings and report that i wont be picking these up.
What about these for my TJ?
Ford 460ci, part # 280 150 759 ?
-
Whoops, I didn't know the TJ had 49 PSI. I'd have to agree they are a bit big.

tthose come to 24.05lb/hr at 49psi (rated at 21.5@39.15psi) => 3.66% more flow - these would work. one thing i cannot be sure about, since their rating is at 39 psi if they atomize properly at 49 psi. Most injectors do just fine but if you read the manufacturer's warnings some specify the max pressure at which the injector is guaranteed to work within specs, i have no idea if these are ok at 49 psi (but like i said, should be fine). I would do a visual check before installing them with the injectors on the rail and activate them one at a time so you can see the spray pattern, if they squirt rather than creating a fine mist then they won't work.

I just contacted some of my buddies from back in my Mustang days so I will have a few sets to choose from soon.
I will post the part #'s as soon as i get them and anyone who's had experience with them and knows something about any one of the sets, please do let me know! :beers:
-
I can also get a set of these 24 lb-ers
F55E-A2E
Anyone know about these?

apparently they are 28 lb/hr, so no go. the other ones you posted were ok, so go for those - for $35 you can't go wrong, if they won't work you didn't spend a fortune on ford motorsport injectors.

I dont really wanna mess with a set that im not a 100% sure on because i am trying to solve some fuel issues im having with the Tj so i want to be CERTAIN that everything replace is in working order so that i can hunt down the culprit of my fuel issues.
Im going step by step and covered spark and ruled it out so I attacking fuel now.
I have gas puddling in the intake and some rough idling so i am assuming its a leaky injector so i am starting there.
I guess i have to keep searching...i am still waiting on one more part # off a different fomoco set, if those dont work....
I might just get a set of used stock injectors off of a 2000 4 banger for $30
-
Pull the leaky one and see if it's just a bad O ring.
-
I have no idea which one is leaking.
Im not even a 100% certain that one is leaking but when i pull the intake ducting off and open the TB, you can smell gas in the manifold and i can touch when i stick my fingers into the TB...
Thats what makes me assume that the injectors are no good...and that one of them leaks and is allowing for gas to puddle in the intake and cause the poor idle...
-

it's inside the intake, so the o-ring won't matter.
-
that is correct!
Am i right to assume that an injector may be the culprit? I just cant see anything else causing that...

would be like you said, an assumption - you can always test them so you don't have to guess.
But on another note, you are getting me a little confused here - i thought you decided to upgrade and fix your [potential] injector problem at the same time (hence: the purpose of this thread) but now you're saying you want to actually get stock replacement injectors - like i said in your other thread, figure out what's wrong first before you go out and buy parts, unless you have 2 vehicles side by side, troubleshooting by replacing items can get expensive - you might hit the jackpot in the first try but then again you could try about 10 times and before you know it you're out 3 or 400 bucks - just a thought to be careful.

Hey,
here's the reason i cant really go through all the testing...first and foremost i live in a small apt with my mom who can not stand to see anything car related in the house so therefore my entire tool box consists of the most limited/basic tools that can fit into my trunk since i need to haul them around. :confused:
Secondly, all the shops around are absolutely terrible. They will NOT nor do they know how to test just about anything. They eyeball the issue and replace the part. To run any sort of test or diagnose a car, they charge $75 and up depending. There are also a few knowledgable race shops that would do all work and stuff but they charge the same 75-100 for just the diagnostic, NOTHING ELSE!
So you can imagine how much it will cost to replace something with parts labor and diagnostics... :yikes:
This is why I have to rely on the internet and repalcing what i can until the problem is solved. I got quoted $300 to install 4 new injectors with their parts just to give you an idea. This is why I spend $30-40 on injectors, replace them and see if they solve the issue. Still cheaper than spending $75 for some careless idiot to tell me that i need to replace them.
Back to the injectors, i just purchased a brand new set from precisionfuelinjectors on ebay. Check out their link and claims. Seems pretty inpressive and i havent seen a single negative review about them.

What do you guys think? He says that these are Mopar injectors, not made for a wrangler but are the same with a better flow pattern.

let us know how it goes, hopefully will fix your problem
