I removed the injectors from the Womble (1983 300TD) and had them checked. Four failed. I had them locally rebuilt and then reinstalled them. What is surprising to me if the improvement in mileage. Pre-rebuild, my in-town mileage was 19, 23 on the highway. I haven't been on the highway since the rebuild, but my in-town mileage is up to 25! I've noticed lots of threads dealing with ways to tune the car, but this simple undertaking led to a 20% improvement in fuel efficiency!
