1981 240D W123:
looks like i need a new injector, or a busted one rebuilt, and i am thinking i should get the other 3 cleaned and balanced while im at it...?
anyone have a recommendation on where to get this done in Los Angeles area? I've never taken my MBs to a mechanic before, but im thinking it needs to be more of a speciality injector shop or diesel shop?
and- what is it that i am asking for? do i get my bum injector "rebuilt" by them or should i buy a rebuilt injector and just have them balance all 4? and clean the other original 3?

I just had my 84 300SD fuel injectors cleaned and balanced last week in Los Angeles at G&N Motors, Certified Mercedes Benz Service and repair. They're on Santa Monica Blvd. I removed the injectors myself, took them to the shop and left them there. They cleaned, tested the spray pattern, and replaced a worn out spring. Made a huge difference in performance.

anybody in LA have a pop tester? i have 1 bad injector, and for budget reasons i would like to replace with a known working used injector, but i'd like to pop test all of them just to see where they are at, and if i should do anything further to any of them,, cleaning, adjusting,balancing etc..

or i guess even non- LA folks, i'd be willing to ship 4 injectors to you and have you test and possibly balance them for me? anybody on the forum offer that service?
