who still services injectors?

Are there any forum members who will still pop test and adjust injectors?

I emailed bgkast, although it says on his profile he is not accepting orders. I also contacted Phil, as is usually suggested, but he directed me to another guy.

I've been reading old threads, but haven't found other up-to-date suggestions. Anyone know a guy?

See my previous thread. Use Gus at Pacific Fuel Injection in South San Francisco. Been doing it right for over 40 years, great service and prices and he has the correct testing equipment, shims, etc. Good luck!

I got a quote from the local Bosch Fuel Injector Service Center for $35/injector (nozzles supplied). Google to find the nearest one to you.

I finally decided to build my own tester and do it myself.

+1 for C. Sean Watts. I had my injectors rebuilt at the local Bosch shop using Monark nozzles that I supplied and was not at all happy with the results. I sent them to C. Sean Watts who tested and inspected them and determined that the Bosch shop had failed to replace one of the old nozzles! Also, the pressure on another of the injectors was slightly off. He slapped a Monark nozzle on the one that the Bosch shop "missed" (who knows what the Bosch shop did with my fifth Monark nozzle) and adjusted the other "off" nozzle and now they all work great!

Oh, and he was very patient while I worked through some payment issues resulting from my trying to access my paypal account from a foreign country.

I recently purchased some new injectors from Sean Watts and it was a pleasure to do business with him. No B.S. or drama just good old fashioned customer service. Thanks Sean!!!
