Just normal online parts stores. I listed some of my favorites on the DIY home page of my site. If you search "nozzle" in any of them they should bring it up.

OK, found them, thanks for the tip.

Problem is, they're more than 1/2 the cost of a NEW injector! Doesn't sound cost effective to me.

The ones you are looking at are rebuilt, it is somebody else's crap that they insert new nozzles on or just reshim the spring and sell for $50+. If you "rebuild" your own at least you know what you have and it costs about half as much.

Well..., they are sold as NEW and the pics LOOK like they're new?

Perhaps I'm wrong, but take a look at this site. About the same price, same injector, but no picture, and they admit it is rebuilt. While they may look new where do you think those cores are going? Just seems like most times you buy it new there are no cores versus if you buy it rebuilt there is.

Right. That makes sense about the cores, but the ones at the link above doesn't have a core charge, that's another reason I assume they're new? I'll call tomorrow and get the skinny.

If you add it to your cart they charge $15 core per injector.

Tom

I would think they are easy to come by. My MB mechanic/buddy ordered them. I would be suppressed if Phil or Rusty did not have them.

They're only 46.00 here and at Rusty's. I'd trust either one to be selling the right part and new if they say so. Is that prechamber thing really all that difficult to remove? Are they usually cleaned and put back in or it is better to just put in new ones? Now those cost a bit ! BTW, do you have to use the reamer when changing GPs ?

They don't say new or rebuilt so I'll be interested on what TomJ finds after calling. Prechamber isn't that hard to remove but does take a special tool. They really don't go bad so there shouldn't be a problem with that. I don't know why a person would take them out to clean them, driving a little harder for a short while cleans them. You only need the reamer if the GPs are other than standard.

NA 31 is a Bosch # for NEW; NA 31X (x=exchange ) is rebuilt. The parts #'s are sort of explained on the Bosch website.

Funny thing, I cannot find NEW injectors ANYWHERE!!!

ALL of the online parts sources (even searching for new Bosch injectors outside of the usual sources) have the $40-50 special. Would be interested to find out where on earth you can find honest to God NEW injectors if these aren't new?

I know where new Monarks are for $70, but Monarks aren't real great from what I hear.
