Replacement fuel injectors

[FlashHole]

Some of you may remember this thread. Original Tread

I think I have narrowed down my last remaining problem(and more than likely the original problem), to a bad fuel injector(s). Is there a decent budget replacement, or is this one of those OEM or nothing type parts? Or, should I just try to clean them first? Not really sure if they wear out slowly, or if they just quit working.

Also, I'm thinking that I may just replace the fuel pump while I'm at it. Same question applies.

I have a cleaner like that on order. Should be here today. I thought I might just replace them if it was cheap enough, but OEM is definitely not cheap and I haven't been able to find any information on decent aftermarket injectors.

Pretty sure they don’t wear out, especially with the amount of hours on a jet ski. They either spray or they don’t. Your kit will tell you that. A cleaned OEM injector is going to better than a new aftermarket.

The injectors in that video look near identical the injectors in my 2005 skidoo 600 SDI. I had made my own set up for cleaning using a 12 volt battery, a valve stem and the can of carburetor cleaner. After cleaning them the snowmobile still didn’t work properly, I had to have them cleaned professionally which fixed my issues. Also note that if they are the same which I believe they are, there is a filter basket inside them that can be replaced. When I was cleaning, I ran the fluid backwards through the injector as well to clean any possible debris out of the filter baskets. Use a little lube on the prong I je toes when re installing

I replaced my fuel injectors 5 years ago with some aftermarket ones on my 2007 GTI SE 155. I was thinking I would replace with OE later for peace of mind, when I had more money. I don’t remember what I spent on them, I think $30 each? But they were pretty cheap and OE was I think around $200 at that time. I might have bought them off EBay. They looked identical, but a slightly different color body. I used to work on Mercedes, and we would get aftermarket parts in plain bags, but they were from the OE supplier - these injectors reminded me of that.

Well, 5 years later and 100+ hours, they are still on my ski and still working great. I think if you shop for a quality aftermarket product, not the cheapest, you will be fine. I am OE all the way, but took a chance on these. Nothing else is aftermarket on my ski.
