    Are these really M20 injectors?

    Hey guys, I got some injectors from an r3v-er to help get my car running and get it smogged. I had 19lb-ers for like a year, and as soon as I got those I threw my stock ones out because they looked like total crap, so it's been a while since I've seen M20 injectors.

    Well I took these to the dealer to get some new o-rings a few days ago (didn't actually get em since they wanted to rape me on the price) and the parts guy said they didn't look like BMW injectors and he couldn't find them in the computer because there's no BMW number on them.

    Here's a pic:



    I put em in along with the stock chip and it still runs like it did with the 19 lb injectors. Basically if I have it in neutral and bring the rpms up to like 2000-2500 it runs 95% smooth but every few seconds it sputters and sounds like the rpm's drop slightly.

    That and when I come to a stop light the rpm's hang around 1200-ish instead of dropping to 800-ish.

    I mean I basically put the new injectors in and drove around the block so maybe it still needs time to relearn the injectors, but it's not looking good. :(

    EDIT: Also, my dumbass didn't take any pictures of the injectors and I didn't write the number down, so that's the only picture I have. Hopefully it's good enough for you guys to figure out what they are.

      Could be something else going on like vacuum lines/gaskets. What year/model is your m20?

        yeah injectors won't change your idle speed you have a vacuum leak somewhere, and BMW doesn't make injectors. Bosch makes injectors for use on BMW cars, that's why you can use bosch injectors from a ford mustang and have them work on a bmw there are other injector manufacturers too though.

              I wish I got it when I had them in the box, but I didn't think to write the number down.

              As long as you guys say they look like stock injectors, that's good enough for me.

              And I still have to change the valve cover and gasket, as well as do a valve adjustment, so I'll have to go look for vacuum leaks when I do that.

              I haven't driven the car in a few months so unfortunately I don't know if it did the idle rpm thing with the 19lb injectors.
