another thing I should add, for those adventurous types: you could hook up a fuel pump, regulator and fuel injector to a battery and spray fuel out of the injector, backwards, cleaning out whatever crap got stuck going into the injectors. Check youtube, theres a few shadetree style injector cleaning videos.
Also, if anyone has 1,1,1 Trichloroethane (old solvent that nobody sells anymore), it dissolves things like carbon deposits and gunk inside of injectors. Hard to find though, though I'd post that. I found a can of that in my neighbors back yard and bought it for 40 ducks.
Thinking out loud :)Leave a comment:

This eBay guy has all the info for what he is selling. You can get old style, design 2, and design 3 parts from him.
I have only seen this one kit on ebay. I have the m50 17.5lbs injectors and am looking at rebuilding them. Two of the pintle caps are broken, and it has the 4pintle design on them, how do i know which caps to order?Leave a comment:

Thanks for the link. I ordered a kit from injector rehab. If I'm not happy with their quality I'll order a kit from that guy.
Good write up btw.:up:Leave a comment:

Thanks slippery. Just ordered some of their rebuild kits. If anyone here would like to see their kits when they arrive I'll be glad to post up some pics along with my opinion of their quality. It doesn't say what material their o-rings are... Viton would be nice.Last edited by Gatts; 02-25-2012, 08:38 PM.Leave a comment:

it would be nice to clean the whole thing first, then remove the replaceable stuff, and it would be more effective if you replaced the filters as well.Leave a comment:

Did you use the cap in the kit or did you have to use the larger one that is separate?Leave a comment:

Blueapplesoda; where do you recommend purchasing the service kits for these injectors... I've been searching using their Bosch part number and can only find service kits for them on ebay. Have you purchased any that they are selling on ebay, or did you simply call up Bosch?
ThanksLast edited by Gatts; 02-25-2012, 05:58 PM.Leave a comment:
