Is there an easy way to determine if my injectors are original?

Great tool.

Can you actually identify the injectors with it?

scottfab · 08-02-2013

I was searching for the pic of the screen I took. No luck.
In my case yes it was easy to tell what injectors I have.
I was in there with the camera
for a different reason (watching secondary smoothly pull in)
but it was visible at times to see the big RC injector logo.

The only real way to find out if the injectors are stock is to pull
the plenum etc. Not easy.

What is an RC? Did he make cola too?

Glad you were able to tell what kind you have! REALLY COOL YUP!!!

Now... what's the identifying clue, to tell if one has original injectors, once the plenum is pulled???

If $$ is necessary for the information, please make this clear. Cat & mouse forensics is a pain...

Sorry, thought you wanted to test them.

Stick a small mirror between the runners on the plenum, if they look like standard Delphi injectors, it's a good chance they are original

Great for doing a self collon-oscopy too I bet but wouldn't recommend it.

Seems to me there are part #s on them. Can't remember. But trying to see those would not be doable unless pulling them out.

As far as I know this is a free forum but paying dues yearly is recommended.

The RC injectors are very distinctive (red/white band).

The stock ones are plain looking

Close up of both primary and secondary for a 90

Thanks!

So they DO have to be pulled for ID?
