Replacement Injectors
« on: November 25, 2009, 12:28:45 PM »
Where can I get refurb(Ford!?) fuel injectors for my 2.5?  I am a little skeptical of the junkyard ones from what I have read on some threads.  Also, which ones do I order?
Thanks.

You can get them off ebay, if you dont want to do the junkyard deal... but they are both still used.  What kind of jeep do you have?

are the yj injectors better than the factory tj, i though that it was the other way around? like i said i do not know anything about which injector to use and whats better for my application.  i did read jeffys thread about them but did not get what i need to apply to my jeep (1997 TJ 2.5L). So i guess what im trying to say is my injectors work fine but i want improvement, so what do i need to do that? I know how to change injectors and everything just dont know what applicatiion i need for improvement with out going to summit racing and spending a fortune! sorry if it sound jumbled

Look for some Ford 24# injectors. Design III with the 4 hole pintle. They come up on ebay. Prices vary. I would suggest cleaning them before installing, so you don't go thru the mess I went thru.

you cannot use YJ injectors in a TJ - the YJ ones flow too little compared to the TJ ones even at the increased 49psi pressure:
YJ - 17.4lb/hr@39psi,
TJ - 23.2lb/hr@49psi

YJ injector on TJ  - 19.5lb/hr@49psi (quite short of 23.2 which is what you should have at the minimum).

Low mileage Fords.  You can find them on ebay fairly easily.  I'd look for clean one as they are most likely in better shape.  My first set were from a Mustang.  The second set were from a F150...  Go with the Design II's as they are better.  Even Mustang guy's swap their Design I's for II's.

Well, I'd go by colors since they are easy to spot then to dick around with p/n's.  Do a search on ebay and look for blue (Navagator), white (F-series) or black (Mustang Cobra).  Then confirm them with a bit of searching.

I found some black mustang ones that are 80#, Blue ones that are 39#, Light blue ones that are 24#, and yellow that are 19#. Im guessing the 24# or the 39# right, i know 80 # and 19 are not the right way, to much and to little.

i also found some ford 24# bosch racing injectors design III for 64 bucks.  But the factory tj is 23# so is that that much better?
