I found new Bosch injector nozzles $14 bucks a piece. Is rebuilding your injectors as simple as replacing the nozzles? Should you also replace the springs?
I'm confused:think: . All the green cap stuff! Anyways, why would you want stock replacements and not opt for a set that offers better spray for more hp and economy? Not tryin' to sound like a jerk, truely confused.
NAPA "rebuilt " injectors for the 6.5 are new, (not rebuilt) if they have a geen cap plug on them. These are Delphi injectors. I have yet to see where hi-flow, hi- pop injectors have helped anybody. The computer controls the fuel quanity thru the injection pump. The injectors have no control over volume. If they did flow more. your fuel economy would go to crap.
All privledged info, please note before delete.
Don't know what other parts they have. Guess no one has any info about rebuilding your own. Looks like I could save about 300 bucks if I just replace the nozzles.
Easy to rebuild. Buy 8 new nozzles, 8 heat shields, 8 injector install copper washers. Reuse all other coponents. Adjust pressure with shims. .002" =~ 100 psi. Keep clean and don't mismatch parts. Mineral spirits should work well enough for cleaning. Nozzle number is on the tip.

Here is a question. It looks like the new ones go for about $42 each. How much do those parts go for? Also how hard is it to get everything together right and set to the correct pressure? Looks to me that it might be better to just buy the new ones and put them in. For the amount of money compared to the time and effort to get the rebuilt right?
Won new Delphi injectors on Ebay and they were $255 shipped to my door. Haven't installed them yet.... Was a little disappointed at first because the seller's listing showed Bosch injectors and then sent Delphi but it still seems like a good price.
The high flow injectors make a nice gain in my experience. At least the ones that I set up do gain. While the computer does control fuel rate, the pulse width is backed down to get the same amount of fuel, along with the increase in ultimate fuel delivery potential...
I have the new Delphi stock units available also. I also have the install kits...

They work, better combined with other stuff & would be one of the last upgrades to do in my book after you have done everything else to get max benefit.
